  
If you’re looking for an unusual game with an ancient past, may we suggest the Frog Game or Sapo Game. Whether you call it “Frog Game,” “Sapo Game,” “Juego de Sapo,” or "El Sapu" (The Frog), it still comes from the mystical, ancient history of the Incas and their sacred Lake Titicaca.
There is a legend that the game evolved from members of the royal Inca family and their court throwing gold pieces into the lake. Frogs were known for their magical powers, and the players hoped to attract one’s attention. These Incas believed that if a frog came to the surface and took a gold piece in its mouth, the player would be instantly awarded a wish and the frog would turn into solid gold. "El Sapu" was the main character in the exciting game of suspense and dexterity, and in honor of so many wishes coming true, a great golden frog was made for all of royalty to enjoy.
Choose your Sapo Game in either green or natural color. These are handmade in Peru of "Tornillo" wood, and the top and backboard pieces are covered in leather sole. Games include all hardware and game pieces, all Bronze spinners, 12 token set SAPO box, and screws. Or you can pick from our accessories to complete your existing Sapo Game.
