About the Game

Come ye young men, come along With your music, dance and song Bring your lasses in your hands For ’tis that which love commands Then to the Maypole haste away For ’tis now our holiday Then to the Maypole haste away For ’tis now our holiday (from the popular folk song Staines Morris)

Then to the Maypole is an 18 card game that celebrates the festival of May Day and the tradition of dancing around the maypole.

The aim of the game is to move the dancers so that they're in their correct positions at the end of the dance according to the song’s specific requirements. Each dancer has their own special ability that will swap the positions of 2 of the dancers. This must be used or it will cost you points. When the dance finishes, stars are awarded depending on how well it was performed. There are 6 unique songs to dance to. Can you earn enough stars to successfully welcome in the summer?
