Chuggington

Die Loks sind los!

In Chuggington there are only trains! Today there will be a race run  and the trainee engines Wilson, Bastian and Koko want to win the race. At first the board is laid out with 24 puzzle parts to form the race track, the wells in the parts form a track for Wilson. He is a battery-driven engine that moves independently and on its own when switched on.

Players choose one of the small cardboard engine figurines and place them into the colored holders. These engines may only start the race when their owners have rolled a green light. Wilson is switched on and begins the race, all players in turn roll the dice. If you roll a green light you may roll again to move your engine and have joined the race. All players continue to roll the dice in turn: If you roll a color you may place your engine figurine on the next spot on the track with this color. Rolling the green light is a lucky roll, you can accelerate and move your engine figurine in front of the engine currently furthest ahead. The red light, on the other hand, is a bit of an obstacle for Wilson and gives the others a chance to catch up with him. If you roll a red light you put Wilson back on the nearest red light behind him on the track.

The first player to reach the colored finish area in the train station with his engine figurine wins the game. And, of course, Wilson can win, too!

This game based on the Chuggington license is especially nice, simple means provide lots of atmosphere and Wilson is a nice idea, fascinating for children. The rules are simple and you can play on your own against Wilson and try to catch him.
