Flix (1949)

Flix was distributed as a single game containing three rule variants (Lucky Flix, Pay-Off Flix, and Tac-T-Flix). The basic goal is to get 4 taxpayer men in a row on a three dimensional gameboard. Specialized dice are used to limit the color and placement of pieces on the "Spaceboard". In Tac-T-Flix, Burocrats, a second type of game piece, are introduced.

• 54 flexible taxpayer men (in three colors for the different players
• 24 Burocrat[sic] Men (8 of each color)
• 3 special Flix dice
• 12 Numbered Tokens

So there are 18 "taxpayer men" and 8 "burocrat[sic] men" in eaach of the three colors. The men are made from looks to be a drinking straw. The top on both is cut off at about a 60 degree angle to give a very pointy appearance. Presumably this is the end that you'd stick in first through the board holes. The bottoms of the taxpayer men are cut off straight across, however the burocrat[sic] men are notched into a "V" and are longer.

The numbered tokens are a card sheet with 12 very thin strips that are meant to be cut off. The strips have a number on them. The set is six 10's, three 25's, two 50's, and one 100. The idea is that when the strip is folded in half that the number is hidden when stuffed inside a "straw piece." The numbered tokens are only used in the game Pay Off Flix by folding them in half and randomly splitting the 12 token between the two players.
