Hände weg von Mississippi

Mississippi is the name of the horse little Anna got from her grandmother. But now some guy called Alligator wants it, and even uses blackmail. The players try to help Anna to keep the animals safe.

7 pairs of animal counters are placed on the table; the large ones open, the small ones hidden. One of the small counters is placed below the alligator card. On command, all players simultaneously peek underneath the remaining counters. When a player thinks he knows which animal the alligator is after, he grabs the corresponding large counter. If he is correct, he gets to keep the pair (1 point for each tile); otherwise he has to give back a piece he collected earlier. In addition, there are a few minor special rules regarding the horse Mississippi.After each round, a new animal pair is added to keep the total at 7. The game ends after 19 rounds, when there are now animals left to refill.
