Throw food, FEED DUCKS

 

Each player has two ducks, which are meant to collect as much food as they can while Peter wanders around the pond. Each player starts with two ducks, the water lilies are distributed randomly on the board, but you must take care that there is always one square in between water-lilies. Each player puts his duck on a path spot outside the water; Peter begins on his starting spot. The start player takes nine pieces of food and lets them drop over the board. Food pieces that are not completely in one square are moved into a square by the thrower, several food pieces in a square are possible. Food pieces which roll off the board are thrown again. Then you roll the dice: For a duck symbol you move peter three steps- if he meets a duck he shoos it into the water and throws three pieces of food into the pond. When a piece of food lands in a square with a duck it is instantly given to the owner of the duck. When the roll results in a number you can move your duck this number of squares and try to swim to a piece of food, straight ahead horizontally or vertically, you can change direction, but not move diagonally. Squares with other ducks and water lilies are blocked, you must move around them. When food pieces are on a water lily you take them when you are in adjacent square. All pieces of food that you reach or which you cross you can take. When Peter has walked around the pond once, the game ends. You win if you have collected most food pieces.

Simple, just right for the target group and yet with a little bit of tactics, because there is no rule where I must position my hand when dropping food on the board.
