Thanks tenter, that's what I thought but never heard of a game called that.

34. Murder?

Thanks mazie, never heard of the game murder, but it fits the clue.

Being elderly!
It's a card game based on American corn exchange where you had to collect all Oats.Barley,Wheat etc. by shouting the number of cards you want to exchange with another player until you had a full set of 8 (I think)

Thanks Tenter, I was just about to say I found Pit as a game, but a game called murder?

I used to play a game called Murder In The Dark as a young 'un, which I think was sometimes shortened to murder...
