Babar und die Abenteuer von Badou

Das Spannende Suchspiel

Babar, Badou and their friends want to bring colored crayons into the Jungle School, but they got lost in the jungle. Dice determine which friend carrying which color of crayon is currently searched for.

The four palm trees are assembled and then - easily visible - distributed around the room, at not to great a distance. Then nine spotting tiles are displayed open-faced next to each palm tree. In your turn you roll both dice. One of the dice determines the friend that must be found, the other the color of crayon this friend must carry. For each combination of friend and color there is only one tile. While the timer runs you may run from one palm tree to the next and look for the actual tile. When you have found the correct tile, you place it onto your own board and hand on the dice. When you took a wrong tile, you must put it back and can go on searching while the timer runs. When the gift is rolled, all players can look for the actual friend who carries the gift. If you rolled the gift you then have another turn of rolling and searching. When the friend you are looking for has already been taken by another player, you grab the star tile. If you are first to do so, you get the tile from its current owner; if he was quicker to grab the star tile he can keep his friend tile. If you grab the star tile in error, you must give back a tile that you already won. If you are first to have five tiles on your board, you win.

A nice idea for a game, the inclusion of the whole room introduces movement and also training for passage of time - can I run once more around the palm trees before the timer runs out?
