PLAY-DOH

SMashed Potato Game

Out of the potato sack, past the scissor slicer, the crinkle chipper, the french fryer and the chip chopper along the way to the finish, the potato field, this is the aim of the game. You mold your potatoes out of Play-Doh, shaped like the famous Mr. Potato Head, and move them from plate to plate. The game provides to molds, a Mr. Potato and a Mrs. Potato, you make yourself the character of your choice in the color you like, yellow, orange, red or purple. In your turn you turn the spinner and either move your potato piece the number of spots indicated by the spinner or place it in front of the figure that is currently furthest ahead – if this is your own figure you move it one spot – or you smash up all potato pieces that are sitting on spots of the Mash Machine.

If no potato figure is sitting on the Mash Machine you may choose a piece of any player and mash up this one. You can relinquish this possibility to mash a potato outside the Mash Machine. Any player who lost a potato figure due to mashing molds himself a new one and starts again at the Starting position, the potato bag.

The finish need not be reached with the exact number of steps. If you are the first to arrive at that spot, you win the game.

This is again a new and very felicitous version of a well-known, well-loved and often used game mechanism. This time the topic also encompasses a license character by the name of Mr. Potato Head, mashing and molding figures is an all-time favorite of all children. The assembling of the Mash Machine parental assistance is recommended and probably necessary for smaller children.
