Paul und der Mond

BUild a Ladder with the sparkle sprites

 

The moon is Paul’s best friend, and one fine day Paul can help the Moon, who has dropped his magic wand, directly into Paul’s garden, and cannot turn into a Full Moon without it. So, Paul needs to build a ladder up to the moon with the help of the sparkle sprites to hand back the magic wand, before the moon disappears behind a cloud.

The game board with star path and garden pond is set up, the moon is fully visible. Five star tiles are placed on the pond, showing the sprite headdresses. After a short time to memorize the headdresses, the star tiles are turned over. The active player rolls and moves Paul that many steps along the garden pond. Then you must find the star tile showing the headdress depicted on the spot with Paul and turn over a star tile. If you found the headdress in the correct color, you take a sparkle sprite with such a headdress and put her onto the star path. If there is no corresponding sprite anymore, you may take any of your choice. If you revealed a headdress in a wrong color, the cloud moves forward over the moon. When all path segments to the moon are filled with sparkle sprites before the cloud completely covers the moon, all players win together.

In two versions, you either switch two or all star tiles when Paul enters a case showing tree trunks or a wooden plank. In the version Star Rally Sweepstakes, you receive a wooden star whenever you put a sprite on the path and win with most stars at the end of the game.
