Contents: 4 counters, 1 dice & 1 game board Suitable for: 2 - 4 players Age 5 - 10 years approx. Box Dimensions: 38 x 16 x 3cm How to play: The game is played in a clockwise direction and the youngest player starts. The object of the game is to be the first to join the penguins for a sardine barbecue! Each player puts his or her counter on the boat that has run aground. The first player tosses the dice and advances their counter by the number of points shown. The penguins invite you to climb on their ladder in order to go faster. These odd animals catch the counters with their net and put them lower down on the board. The first player to precisely reach the large block of ice wins the game and the right to taste the sardines. If they go past the end square, they go back the same number of squares that they have over- rolled.
