KnaveKids countdown – Turtles (Ribbit)

IMG_3947I am responsible for 99% of Turtles game copies in Ireland 😉 Game was introduced at Knavecon 2 few years ago and became instant hit. One of those games that can be enjoyed by kids and adults. Some people even suggested to play it for money. Simple rules, very fast, great components. Get your turtle the first to reach the lettuce using your 5 cards hand. Thing is you do not know what colour are other players. Jump on the back of others and let them carry you to finish line 😉

IMG_4624Pictured above are 5 and 7 year old and as you can see they enjoy it a lot ;).

Just remember that ‘advanced’, unofficial version must be played with adults: winner is turtle on top and not on the bottom like in official rules.

Several copies of Turtles will be available to play at KnaveKids. We might even do small ‘tournament’.

Level 7

Doom the boardgame + Descent 2ed + dash of Xcom = Level 7 [Omega Protocol]. First time we played it months ago and it was just OK, last night play was great!
