Baladino

It's walk day at Dino Park! The owners are out and about, accompanied by their faithful pet Dino.

A competition quickly arises: which Dino will be the fastest to reach the park gates? All these little creatures set off down the central path, but watch out for Billy, the park warden, who is keeping a close eye on things and can't stand to see the dinosaurs stray too far from their master!

In Baladino, players take on the roles of owners walking their pet Dino. A race is organized in the central walkway of Dino Park, and the first Dino to reach the end of the walkway is declared the winner.

Each player must manage the progress of two pawns: their Dino pawn AND their Master pawn. To move, players roll the die and choose to move either their Dino pawn or their Master pawn. To win the game, only the Dino pawn counts, and it would make sense to move only that pawn, BUT that's where Billy, the park ranger, comes in! Billy is strict and doesn't tolerate the Dinos being too far from their Master.

When a player rolls the whistle, if their Dino is more than 3 spaces ahead of their Master pawn, they must move their Dino back to the same space as their Master. Each player has their own technique, bold or cautious, to advance and win the race!
