Description

Have you ever been out on a picnic when a sinkhole opens up and drops you into a scary old mine filled with strange and dangerous creatures?

Well, let me tell you what to do if you're ever in that situation!

You gather up all the picnic supplies you can find, leap into a minecart to try your best to escape from the monsters, avoid the cave-ins, and keep your distance from the mad scientist who's just as likely to help you as he is to turn you into one of his experiments.

The objective of the game is to place enough track cards to escape the mine. The number of tracks you'll need will vary depending on the number of players but the gameplay remains the same. The monsters, the natural disasters and the mad scientist will all be working against you.

But never fear, you'll have access to some of the best gear you can imagine to stop these creatures. No, wait. Sorry about that. Um, yeah, you'll only have whatever you can find from your picnic, like bananas, potato salad and a pair of wireless headphones that are somehow still working.

We hope you make it out -- you probably won't -- but good luck!
