About the game
Golf 'n' Roll is a turn-based board game for 1-4 players that recreates a game of golf, where players hit balls into a series of holes on a course using the fewest number of strokes. To do this, players must choose the club, decide the strength of the blow... and throw the dice to check where the ball ends!. A typical game lasts between 15-30 minutes, and the minimum age recommended is 5 years old. Golf 'n' Roll takes place in a rectangular board with 4 golfer tiles, 4 circular numbered ball tokens and 4 dice (white, green, yellow and red). The holes in the board are divided into squares, where golfers move after hitting the ball. Each of these squares have a gem whose color indicates the difficulty of that trail (green, yellow or red) and a flag indicating the presence or not of obstacles (free, vertical or cross mark). The latest of each hole have a darker green color, an they are called "Green"; one of them which also contains flag is called "Hole." The game is originally designed for kids and families, so it has a great simplicity, but it also has an "History" gameplay, where our players can acquire skills, which will be very much appreciated for advanced gamers.
