Können Schweine fliegen?

DISCOVER ANIMALS AND THEIR CHARACTERISTICS

24 characteristics are listed in the game, connected to varying aspects of animal life: It lays eggs, has 2, 4 or 6 legs, has a fur, can fly, lives in groups, has a peak, is an endangered or extinct species, has a carapace, is night-active and so on. These characteristics are laid out in a circle within easy reach of all players. The animal cards are stacked face down. Within the circle you place the track. Each player takes a pig and four chips of the same colour, the pigs are placed on the cloud spots of the track. In each round one animal is turned up from the stack. If you discern a fitting characteristic, you place your chip on it.  When two players want to mark the same card the faster one may do so. Each player may place all his chips, but only one chip can be placed on a card.

Then you control the answers in the solution booklet: For each correctly marked characteristic you advance your pig one step, for each falsely marked characteristic you move one step back. The player farthest advanced on the track after five rounds wins the game. The rule book states variants for younger players from age 3 and for getting acquainted with the game.

In this edition, too, this game is ideally suited for a family game a fast and highly interesting introduction for children into the fascination world of animals. The game also is. For the first game with children of preschool-age supervision is necessary, you need to explain the characteristics. The solutions can be used and understood without reading abilities. With some animals speed is essential, because for them very few characteristics are listed.
