About the game

The game consists of a race through a board with coloured spaces and 6 books with questions of 6 categories (Science, entertainment, history / geography, sports, art and trade). The player / team roll the dice to get 3 numbers, for example 3-1-6. Then, from the book with the color of the space landed, other player reads the question number 316. If the player answers correctly, he can continue playing, otherwise the next player continues. When a player guesses the answer of a space with a star, he receives a token of the color associated with the topic answered correctly. The first to get a token from each category wins!
