Edmund Hoyle (1672 - 1769) undertook the enormous task of codifying the rules of games and the fruit of his endeavours, Hoyle's Rules of Games, now includes rules, strategies and odds for over 250 games.

Hoyle's Games Shop was established in Oxford with the intention of supplying the necessary sets, equipment and gaming pieces for all these games and has since expanded to include juggling equipment and magic.

In each category we sell basic value equipment as well as expensive deluxe variations. The top 'how to' books on each game are carried in the shop with an Internet site through which all books currently published on all games are available at 10% discount.
