Beppo der Bock is a board game released in 2007 for 2–4 players, 15 minutes per game, and ages 5 and up. It was designed by Klaus Zoch, Peter Schackert, and Arthur Drescher.
About the game
Each player controls a wooden figure and tries to reach the last space of the track. However, the buck Beppo, represented by a wooden piece as well, is resting in the fields and should not be disturbed... On his turn, a player places Beppo on a powerful magnet, then sends a small metallic ball in its direction. If he meets them, Beppo will kick the players' figures away (sending them back to the start of the track), and the place where he arrives on the board determines how far the active player moves his pawn.

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Beppo der Bock is 15 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Beppo der Bock for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
