Magic feathers from the magic bird

In the jungle animals have lost their partners in the thick of plants, but the Magic Bird high above the jungle sees all and helps animals with his magic feathers to find their partners. All animal tiles are spread out un-enchanted side up on the table and each player is given a feather.

The active player places his feather on his and puffs at it. You have two tries to let the feather land on an animal tile; the feather is considered to have landed when the backbone of the feather touches a tile. If it touches two tile you can choose the one you want. When the feather thus touches an animal whose partner is still in the middle of the table, too, you take the animal tile. When the feather ends up on an animal whose partner one has already collected or which is with another player, you take the partner from the table or – if it is not protected – from the other player and turn the pair over to the enchanted side. For this pair you also take the Magic Bird who protects a single tile, if you have one, and stays with you until another player collects a pair. When the Magic Bird protects an animal and another player lands his feather on this animal’s partner, the Magic Bird lures this partner away and you get if from the other player. When all pairs have been found, you win with most pairs.

We have had puffing games, but none with feathers and with such beautiful components; the feathers are colorful and the Magic Bird and the other animals are enchantingly drawn. Letting the feathers float does really word and with a little practice before you play – recommended by the rules – you can really direct the feathers!
