From the Amigo website: Faster and ever faster, the rabbits hop over diverse items and cover them. And they must pay attention not only to what's ahead, but to where they are now. So eyes up and spoons high because even with long ears, only practice makes one a Master Hare! From the Playroom Entertainment catalog: Time to get your memory moving with Hop to It! Take a deep breath, get a good look at the row of objects, and then you're off! As soon as you remember an item that's covered, the cover is removed and placed on the next item in the line. With only 30 seconds to remember all of the objects, you'll need to be quicker than a bunny as you hop from one item to the next.
Hop to It! supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. 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 Hop to It! is 10 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 Hop to It! for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
