Sticky Chameleons

Catching insects with a glibb tongue

You are a young, hungry chameleon and therefore try to catch insects and snatch up the choicest and plumpest ones. There is a selection of six types of insects available, in varying shapes - T for a Dragonfly, L for the Grasshopper, Rectangle for the Spider, Wave for the Caterpillar, Circle for the Bug and Star for the Mosquito, each insect comes in five colors. All insects and among them five wasps are spread out on the table.

The active player rolls a color die - it shows pink, purple, blue and yellow once each and twice green - and an insect die; the result determines the current plumpest insect. All players try quickly and simultaneously to catch this insect with their sticky glibber tongue. If you manage it, you remove it, using your regular hand, and put it back on the table. While it is still sticking to your sticky tongue, the other players can still catch it with their tongue and snatch if from yours. You may only touch the current plumpest insect with your hand to remove it from your tongue, you cannot touch any other insect or a wasp with your hand. Other insects caught at the same time are put back. For a successfully caught and returned insect, you receive a Yummy chip, if you are unstung. Should you, however, snatch a wasp, you are stung; if it is on your tongue when you put back the current plumpest insect, you do not get a Yummy chip. If you take your 5^th Yummy token, you win!

A cute topic, nice and very pretty components and a lot of fun with the sticky glibber tongues, which do not always behave as you want them to! Good practice for hand-eye-coordination and reaction.
