Children were playing their own version of Gogo's as far back as 330 BC in ancient Greece. in those days they didnt have cool characters like Skull and Mosh; In fact they used the bones of sheep. How gross is that?

The game was commonly known as Knucklebones, although they actually used the ankle bones because of their shape, which is very similar to some of the Gogo's we have today.

According to Greek Mythology, the game was also played by soldiers during the epic Trojan war. Some ancient Greeks thought that the game was handed down to mortals by the god Zeus himself while ancient egyptians believed it was invented by their god Thoth.

roman soldiers used to play something similar to the standard gogos game: points were scored depending on how the bones fell when thrown on the floor. different scoring combinations were named after the various roman gods: the highest was called Venus after the goddess of love. It was the favorite game of many roman centurions during their breaks of battle.

As far back as the 16th century children in Britain were playing a game called hucklebones. Fivestones involved throwing one bone in the air and trying to pick up the bones on the floor before catching the falling one. The game eventually turned into the modern day game of Jacks and the bones were replaced with metal pieces and a small ball.

In the 1990's Crazy bones were created. these were the first plastic gogos.

In around 2007 gogos crazy bones were created. Today we are on Series 4 and counting.
