Description

The sun is striking hot. You all want get to the water first. Here is to use you brain and answer to simple mathematical questions, and if you are correct you can move forward across the desert. The used cards are placed face down in the bottom of the pile.

Uses multiplication between 1 and 9 tables. You draw two number cards, and if you can add or multiply them together you can roll the dice and move forward. When the cards are finish in the pile, shuffle and use them again. You need to use the cards several times to get to the goal.

If you get the Road Runner card you are lucky. You do not need to do the math, only move to the closest Road Runner (yellow) square in front of you. If there are no yellow square in front of you (you are close to the goal) then you to bad stand still at the spot, and it is next players turn.

First to the Goal is the winner. Two people can stand on the same square. There is no extra action if you role a six, you only have the good luck of be able to move 6 steps on the board.
