Mia and me

Rettet Centopia!

 

And yet again the evil Munculus Queen Panthea is threatening the wonderful unicorns in the Kingdom of Centopia. Mia and her elven friends must take the unicorns to safety as fast as they can.

The markers for Mia, Mo and Yuko start the game in the middle of the board at the elven castle; the Munculus and unicorn markers are placed on the board according to detailed rules; at the start of the game some Munculus markers are already next to some of the unicorns. Panthea catches a unicorn when four Munculus markers are next to it.

You roll all available dice – each die showing a Munculus symbol is placed on the Panthea card, it is out of the game until all four dice are on the Panthea card. Then you choose one action from the remaining dice: A drop of water gives you one drop from stock; for pips you move a character marker accordingly. When four dice are on the Panthea card you pull one Munculus from a corner and place it next to one of the unicorns, adhering to detailed rules. To save a unicorn you must – depending on the number of Munculus markers next to the unicorn – move one or two character markers to the unicorn and discard water drops equal to the number of Munculus markers next to the unicorn. Once in the game you can use a character’s friendship ring to take two water drops or to call friends. When the last unicorn has been saved, all have won together; when Panthea manages to catch one unicorn all have lost together.

This game is of course of special interest for all friends of Mia, and basically a very nice and pretty cooperative game, which you can only win by well-considered use of dice results.
