Gigi Gnomo

search for treasures, avoid gigi

Players are looking for the five treasures of the Gnomo family, but need to take care not to be caught and bewitched by Gigi Gnomo. Treasures are depicted on the bottom part of trees that are put into the box around the edges, one slot is left empty. You roll all three dice: For foot prints you move forward accordingly – you can go fewer steps than rolled, but at least one step, holes and occupied spots are not counted - and pull a tree from the box to find the treasure depicted on the case you reached. If you managed to find the right treasure, you take the corresponding disc for your board and put the tree back into the other free slot.

For each Dust Cloud that you rolled you rotate the disc by one spike. Pieces that did fall into a hole due to this rotation have been caught by Gigi and are bewitched – their owners draw a card and must implement the effect from now on, after their own turn or after any turn or all the time, depending on the symbol on the card. The pieces involved go back to the next clearing.

If you reached and found a treasure that you already own, you can use it to get rid of a spell. You can also get rid of a spell by discarding a treasure from your board. If you get back to the starting spot, you may select any treasure of your choice. If you then still do not have five treasures, you must begin another round across the forest. If you have collected all five treasures, you win.

A very nice game for children and also a good family game in which you can utilize the option to select your range of movement in a turn for a bit of tactic. The drawings are very nice and the spells are appropriate.
