Max on Tour

BACK ON TIME WITH GUITAR AND CUSHION

 

Max, the little snail, wants to get a taste of the big, wide world and starts on a long journey. He meets new animal friends who give him nice gifts. As Max wants to get home with all his gifts before Rosi the Caterpillar has eaten all the lettuce, he must store all the gifts well.

The animal cards are laid out in a circle and the lettuce chips are placed on the garden card, whole heads up. The gifts are placed into the circle of cards and Max begins his journey on the garden card. Now you need to decide if it is allowed during the game to shift gifts that Max is already carrying on his back or not, and then you can start the game.

You roll the die: For a color you use the pushing rod to move Max along the outside of the circle to the animal of that color and then load a gift of this color on Max. When the next player rolls the same color, Max must do one circuit. If no corresponding gift is left you roll again. When Max drops gifts while moving you turn over a lettuce chip and put the gifts back on; if there are two of a color one is put back into the circle. For a Star Max does not move and you choose any gift.  When Max carries gifts of all five colors he can return to the garden. When there is one undamaged head of lettuce in the garden, all players have won together. But when all lettuce heads have been nibbled at, Rosi the Caterpillar has won.

Max on Tour offers wonderful fun, nice components and on top of that trains dexterity and motor skills; players learn colors and shapes and also to assess risks - can the lamp be anchored better on Max than the guitar of the same color?
