Setup

  1. Take the big rectangle "obstacle" path cards and find the Home card. Set it aside. Shuffle the big cards and place them in a pile face down.

  2. Take the small square "tool" cards and shuffle them. The number of cards each player gets depends on how many players there are: 2-3 players get 8 each; 4 players get 7 each; 5 or more players get 4 each. Put them right side up in front of you.

Playing the Game

  1. Turn the first big obstacle path card right side up. This is your first obstacle on your way home!

  2. Everyone now suggests a tool card they have and how it could be used to overcome the obstacle on the path! Your explanations can be as creative, crazy and imaginative as you like! As a group, decide which tool(s) are going to work best! Put this/these tool cards on the obstacle card. Everyone else puts their tool cards at the bottom of the deck. All players take a new tool card.

  3. Next, turn over the next obstacle path card in the pile and add it to the last card. Repeat step 4. As you overcome obstacles your journey to home will get longer and longer! For a short game, you can repeat until 10 obstacles are overcome and then add your final Home card. If you want to go longer, keep turning over obstacle path cards!
