About the game

What is Fleeting Foxes

In this crazy competition each player tries to be the first to catch hen with his fox.

A player rolls, one by one, the four fox dice. After each throw he has to decide if he wants to move his own fox or the fox of another player as many squares as dots on the dice. But beware! Each fox can only be moved once during one's turn. Therefore you have to think twice about which fox you are going to move or if it is risky to wait in the hope of a higher score, to move your own fox. The game ends as soon as a fox catches up to the hen, thus winning the game. It also ends if a fox is too slow and is caught by the hen. In this case all the players lose and the hen crackles with triumph.

Propiedad Aula d'estudis Juego infantil donde se enseña a recorrer casillas con el dado (básico) pero además tiene un sistemas de asignación de dados que hace que el niño aprenda a elegir la mejor opción que le conviene. No siempre el dado con el valor mas alto es la mejor opción ya que puedes hacer caer a los demás en una casilla negativa o a ti mismo en una positiva. Muy recomendable para niños.
