Game Board

• The Slides

  

  Some parts of the track have "slides". The triangle is the start of the slide and the circular end is the end.

  If a pawn ends at the start of a slide (color of an opponent's color), the pawn skids to the end of that slide. Any pawns in the middle of that slide are sent back to their respective start square.

• Safety Zone

  This are the colored squares leading to your home and your pawns are safe here because no other player can affect a pawn here.

  A player can only enter safety zones matching the color of his pawn and you enter the zone from where it joins the open track.

• Home

  This is the final destination for your pawns. You can only reach here by an exact count.

Setup

Choose a color and place the according pawns on the start space.

Shuffle the deck of cards and place them face down on the "place pack here" mark.

Deal 5 cards face down to each player.

Choose a player that can start. i.e. the youngest player.

Object of the Game

The players should get all 4 of their pawns to their home square.

Game Play

On you his turn a player must do:

1. Select one card from your hand.

2. Play it onto the discard pile and move one of your pawns according to the card's instructions.

3. Draw a new card and add it to your hand.

You may jump over pawns and if a pawn ends on a square that is occupied by another pawn, then the occupying pawn is sent back to its start square.

To move a pawn from your start out onto the open track, you must draw either a 1 or a 2. If it is a 2, do as it says, then draw again and move if possible.

If at any time you cannot move, you forfeit your turn but else you must move. Once a pawn reached HOME, he can't not move anymore for the rest of the game.

If the draw pile runs out of cards, then you have to shuffle the discards and use them again.
