Aim of the game
You need to collect as many task cards as possible.
How to play
The players take turns. When it is your turn, take a good look at the game board and the animals. Now take the sunglasses and put them on so that you can't see anything.
The player to your left draws a task card from the stack and places the pictured figure in your hand. You must now feel which figure it is and say this out loud. Now the other players tell you the task you have to perform. Even if you haven't recognized the correct animal, you have to perform the full task as only the end result counts. The other players are not allowed to give you any hints.
You have managed to perform the task correctly? Super! You can take the task card and place it in front of you.
You didn't manage to perform the task correctly? What a shame! The task card is put on the used stack as it is no longer needed.
Now it is the next players turn.
General rules
- Before the first game: look at the game board and the different animals carefully. Take the animals in your hands and remember their differences so that you can recognize them later on.
- The sheep is woolly
- The pig is small and has short legs
- The rabbit has long ears
- The chicken has a bushy feather tail
- The horse has long legs and a long neck
- The cow has a long straight back
- Whilst placing or removing an animal from the game board, none of the animals already on the game board must fall over. If this happens, your turn ends immediately and you don't win the task card. Pick the fallen animal(s) up again. Now it is the next players turn.
- When it is your turn, you may touch the game board as well as the animals already on the game board. You are not allowed to lift the animals off the game board. Of course, the animals on the game board must not fall over.
- The animals must be placed standing upright. It is not allowed to lay the animals flat on the game board. The animals may stand upside-down.
- An animal is placed correctly even if only a part of the animal touches the holiday resort. Before the next players turn, the animal must be moved completely onto the holiday resort.
- When there are not enough animals next to the game board to complete the task shown on the task card, the card is put under the stack of cards and a new card is drawn.
