The instructions to play Children of the World game by Ravensburger?

Answer 1

The aim of the game is to meet as many other children as possible and give them your postcards. Six children who come from every corner of the earth are setting off on a voyage of discov ery around the world. No matter where they call home, be it Europe, Asia, Arabia, Africa or America, all six travellers are curious to find out how children live in other parts of the world. Every child has postcards from his or her home country to give to the others. Before you start the gaem. Place the game plan in the middle of the table and choose one of the wooden dolls. If two ro trhee of you are playing, you can each use two wooden dolls. To begin, place your doll on the colored square outside its house (doll's shoes and clothes match color of staring box). Each player takes 5 postcards with pictures of animals, plants, buildings and food from the country where your child lives. The coloured edge around the cards matches each wooden doll's clothing. Put the postcards on the table in front of you and look at them. Can you recongize what it is? You will find brief descriptions of the individual pictures in the rule book. Players decide who is most adventurous, and this player goes first. Setting of on your voyage around the world When it's your turn, throw the dice and move your wooden doll along in the direction indicated by the dice and by the number of boxes shown on the dice. The arrows on the dice are also shown on the game plan, so you can always tell which direction you should move in. <...) For example, you throw a red arrow with 3 dots, then move your wooden doll 3 boxes to the left. If you throw a green arrow with 2 dots, move 2 boxes to the right. If you end your turn on a box where there is another player's doll, you may give this player one of the postcards from your country. If there are several dolls in the box where your turn ends, choose which one of them you would like to give a postcard to. Place the postcards you have been given in a stack so that they don't get mixed up with the ones you are trying to give away. THE WINNER is the first player to give away all his or her 5 postcards.
