Description

"Feed me!" the little yellow seal begs the zoo keeper. "No, feed me first – I m much more hungry!" the green seal whines. And at once all four seals open their mouth and start howling. Desperately the zoo keeper looks from one seal to the other – which one should he feed first? A smart idea occurs to him; "Lets play a game together.Whoever wins, gets a fish!" "Hurray, playing games is fun!" the seals cheer and flap their flippers. Impatiently they wait for the game to start. Game 1. Feeding the Seals Roll the die. If a colored seal appears either open or close it's mouth (on the game board). If a fish appears, and the corresponding seal's mouth is open, feed it. The game ends as soon as a player has fed a seal with their last fish. Game 2. No, no – I Don t Like Fish! This is a variant of Go Fish, but with the fish tiles and the open mouthed seals on the board. Game 3. I want fish! As in Game #1 but each players has a secret seal (color) identity. When feeding a seal, if your color's mouth is closed, you must feed someone else's seal. The player whose seal has eaten the most fish wins.
