About the game
Kids' version of Take 5 (6 nimmt!) The players move animals into four stables. Play proceeds clockwise round the table as players turn up a card from the stack depicting one (or sometimes 2-3) out of 6 different animals. The player adds the animal to a stable where the animal doesn't already appear (if possible). When the card is the 6th different animal for the stable, he collects all these animal cards as points. Game ends when the draw stack is exhausted. The player who collects the most cards wins. There are some variants in the rule book, including one where you don't want to collect cards, like in the base game.
