Monster unterm Bett

Car frightens Twin-headed bird

Little Ben is afraid of the nasty monsters under his bed. Fortunately for him, all proper monsters have to adhere to a code of honor and need to be afraid of one specific toy.

The sun rise card is placed on the table and covered with the monster cards showing the child in bed, this makes up the bed that the monsters are circling. All toys but the Old Sock and the Hares Foot are placed face down on the table and so are the three time cards, the cupboard is placed somewhere near. A first monster is turned up and placed next to the bed. Then you turn up a toy – if it is the toy that frightens the monster near the bed the monster is placed under the cupboard. If it was the only monster next to the bed a new one is turned up. If you turn up the wrong toy, you must turn over a time card. When the third time card is turn over, all are turned back again, but a new monster is courageous enough to crawl out from under the bed. When the sun appears because all monster cards are gone, all players win together because all monsters still next to the bed speedily flee from the sun. But when four monsters are assembled around the bed, the monsters have won. In a variant you can use only two of the time cards or shuffle Old Sock and Hares Foot into the toys, for both special rules apply. For the version featuring the Twilight Twoegged Twin Monsters you must find both toys they are afraid of to chase them away.

Basically a simple memory game, but the topic of monsters under the bed is enchanting and turns it into something special, and the time factor is a challenge, too.
