What is Yakari Wettlaufspiel

Game play in Yakari Wettlaufspiel (aka, Der Maulwurf und sein Lieblingsspiel) is similar to Pachisi, albeit with a different die.

Each player receives four pawns, which he needs to move from his start field to his destination field. Each turn, a player rolls the die, which shows six different symbols. Each field on the board also shows one of these symbols. After rolling, the player may move one of his pawns to the next field bearing that symbol. If another pawn is already on that field, that pawn is removed from the board.

When a player rolls the Yakari (or blume in DMusL) symbol, he may move a pawn from off the board to his start field. After rolling a Yakari (blume) symbol, a player takes another turn.

A player whose pawns are all off-board or on the destination field may roll the die three times to try to obtain a Yakari symbol and get a pawn on the board.
