Wacky Wacky West

Wheeling And Deeling for Outhouses

(Drunter & Drüber)

Citizen of Schilda and their stupidities are everywhere, even south of Nowhere. At a crossing of the Mayfair & Rossdorf lines with the Turvy Trunk Line! That’s where you can find Rossdorf and that’s where they found a spring of wacky water that all want to acquire. But unfortunately they also forgot to build some tracks, some roads and a river bed. You need to build all this things and at the same time defend some special buildings from being torn down. The kind of building you want to defend is determined secretly at the start of the game. There are five buildings of each kind on the board. The nearer to the center of town a building is located the more points you score if you can save it from being built over.

You receive a number of tiles and in each turn you can place one. A new tile can only be placed on free areas and must be placed adjacent to a spot with a worker on it and adjacent to a tile of the same kind. After placing the tile you relocate the worker to this tile. If a building is totally covered it is considered to be torn down. But mind the outhouses! You can only tear those down if you win the voting. If nobody can place another tile the game ends and all players add the points for their remaining buildings. If you the highest score you win the game.

20 years old, game of the Year 1991, and still as good as if it won the price yesterday – Klaus Teuber is a genius for perennial favorites. It’s simply fun to cover buildings you do not want to save as destructively as possible and to vote against tearing down an outhouse because that so nicely blocks an opponent. But he has a vote, too!
