Tiddlywinks
The modern game of tiddlywinks was introduced in 1955 by Bill Steen and Rick Martin. These two Cambridge students wanted to play a game at which they could represent the university in a Varsity Match against Oxford. The game is still played in Cambridge, but also around the UK and in North America, especially at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Contrary to popular belief, the modern game is a serious one, comparable to snooker or croquet in complexity. The rules of the game are determined by the English Tiddlywinks Association.
