·        This game is for two to five players ages 5 and up.

 

Object

 

            The object of this game is to collect as many stars as you possibly can. Suggested amount of stars to win is five. Feel free to adjust that amount. The more stars, the longer the game.

 

Getting Started

 

• Each player chooses his or her playing piece and places them on the start square.
• Roll the dice and place one star on the corresponding “star” square.
• Deal three item cards to each player and place the rest of the deck face down on the designated place on the board.
• Roll the dice to determine the order of play. The player with the highest roll goes first. The order goes in a clockwise direction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your Turn

 

• When a player starts his or her turn, they must pickup an item card from the deck (see cards section for more information).
• If possible, play a card.
• The player then rolls the dice to determine how many spaces to move on the board

·        If the card played at the beginning of the turn is a trap, then the square in which a player can place that trap is determined by the roll of the dice. Once the player has finished moving, he or she may place the trap in front or behind them up to a maximum amount of squares that is shown on the dice from their original role.

·        If no card was played, and the player has more than three cards, then he or she must discard cars. No single player can have more than three cards at the end of their turn.
