To play it with my sister as a kid. We tried to travel the world and when we got stuck we asked our mother. She was confused by the wierdly deep questions we asked her. Eventually she gave us a dictionary for us to find things in. I still have the book and cherrish it as one of my most important books, not for what it holds but for all the memories it carries.
