Start for freeWhat to Expect
Players take turns drawing tiles representing rabbits and carrots, trying to collect sets without drawing the fox. Each turn involves risk assessment to decide whether to keep drawing or stop. The goal is to collect four rabbits and four carrots on your picnic blanket first, earning candy tokens to win.
Who Is This Game For?
This game targets families and young children aged 5 and up. It’s a short, simple game ideal for beginner players and quick sessions lasting about 15 minutes.
How It Works
Players draw tiles from a bag containing rabbits, carrots, and foxes. Drawing rabbits or carrots lets you continue or stop to place them on your board. Drawing a fox ends your turn and returns your collected tiles to the bag, while the fox tile is removed. The first to collect four rabbits and carrots earns a candy token; two tokens win the game.
