What to Expect

In Aku Ankka, players travel through Duckburg answering trivia questions from categories like pictures, residents, stories, and miscellaneous. Each player has a personal route with four locations to visit in order. With five action points per turn, players move, answer questions, or spin the spinner. Correct answers grant helpful action cards. The goal is to visit all locations, steal the Number One Dime, and return it to the Money Bin.
