Answer 1

Coup de foudre (pronounced coo -de (not dee, "de", in french) - foudre)

Its a game for adults. Couples. "Coup de foudre" sort of means love at first sight.

Answer 2

zathura?

Answer 3

It is definitely Mille Bornes.  When you reach the 1000 mile mark you say the Coup Fore'.  It is actually a card game.  We have some available at our website of the older styles.

Answer 4

Perhaps you are thinking of Mille Bornes.  There is a play called a Coup Fourre (pronounced coo-foo-ray) which resembles what it sounds like your mother is looking for.

Answer 5

Mabey it's Carbolus.
