Edition of "The playing elephant". The animals of the jungle race between the trees, through the desert and along the river. Who collects the most fruits along the way? Two long game boards are placed against each other on the table. You recognize a road through a jungle. Each player has his own colored die on which there are four animals (and then two blank sides). There is a white die that drives the game. This white die shows six animals. The four animals that the children also own are the monkey, the parrot, the elephant and the crocodile. These animals move through the jungle. But each animal has its own spaces where it can go: the monkey winds through the trees, the parrot flies through the air, the elephant walks to the savannah and the crocodile prefers to swell in the water. If you look closely at the game board, you will recognize these fields. Before the game starts, 21 fruits are placed on different spaces of the jungle. These 21 fruits are important. After all, whoever collects the most of those cards wins the game. Whoever has a turn rolls the white die. I throw e.g. a monkey, then I can turn my colored die so that the monkey is on top and then see if this monkey can be moved to an adjacent square. That section must be a tree and preferably a tree with a fruit! For example, the white die is thrown each time and the other dice function as pawns. The white die contains two other animals. If you roll the lion, you must hide (skip turn) while the mouse helps you on your way (you can play again). You continue to play until all players have passed the finish line. Whoever comes here first will receive two fruits as a reward. The second gets another one. When everyone has arrived, the player who collected the most fruits wins. This game teaches children to map out a route and find the shortest way. To win you have to look carefully at how the jungle works. Number of players: 2 - 4 Age: from 3 years old Content: - 2 game boards - 4 colored wooden dice alf playing figures - 1 white wooden die - 21 jungle fruits - game rules
