Description

The players have to move their token from start to finish. The token have holes in their center, which are used to move the token with a stick (lance). Movement is determined by 40 small cards with letters on them. The cards are used to form the words "Ruck" and "Zuck". The players start with 3 cards, lying open in front of them. Every turn the player draws a card. As soon as he can form one of the two words the player has to move his token accordingly. "Ruck" means forward and "Zuck" means backward. The number of spaces is equal to the number of cards used to form the word (2-4). If a player moves his token onto a green space, he may move forward to the next green space. A red space means the player has to move backward to the last red space. The first player to reach the finish wins the game.
