PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Drecksause

Straight into the mud!

 

Cleanliness is not the top priority of pigs and therefore all of them want to be muddy when having their picture taken at crossing the finish line, so muddy at the finish - colorful picture achieved!

Each player begins with a frame holding six pictures in black and white, five times of for a pig and once for the farmer. If it is your turn, the spinner tells you how often you may push your pig with the broom. When it ends up in the meadow, nothing happens. When it slides into a mud pool, you may turn over your pig marker to Muddy; but when the poor pig slides into a water hole, it is unwillingly cleaned and therefore the marker is turned to Clean or stays on Clean. When the pig rushes across the finish line the marker is the deciding factor - does it show the muddy side, a picture was taken and you may turn over a picture in your frame to the color side. When the marker shows Clean, the round was run in vain and the pig must begin another one. If you manage to push the farmer out of the puddle, you may turn over the farmer picture in your frame. Should your pig fly out of the box because of too much momentum, it begins the race again clean. Whoever manages first to turn over all pictures to the clean side, wins the Race of the Muddy Pigs.

Simple, easy, nice - a good dexterity game with a cute topic and pretty, painstakingly designed components - each player in fact has five different pig pictures! Felicitous family entertainment with some rather surprising results of pushes - you can use the border of the board for rebounds and may push other pigs out of the way, but hopefully not into a mud pond or over the finish line!
