Orchard Toys - Rocket Game

Collect the most loops as you blast into space in this fun, counting and matching game! Choose a launch pad and blast into space collecting as many loop-the-loops as you can on the way! At the end of the game count the loops and the player with the most wins! Develops counting and matching skills and encourages social interaction and turn taking.

Each player chooses a coloured launch pad base card. The rocket trail and rocket cards are spread, starry side down, on the table.
The youngest player begins by spinning the spinner and choosing a matching card from the table. The card is turned over and, if it is a rocket trail card, it is joined to the trail above their launch pad. Play passes to the next person.

If a player turns over a card depicting a rocket, matching another player’s launch pad, the card is returned face down onto the table. The player then mixes the cards up shouting “Space shuffle!”.

If a player turns over a card depicting a rocket of the same colour as their launch pad, they place the rocket at the top of their rocket trail and can no longer add rocket trail cards to their trail. The player can still turn over cards on their next turns, but they must place them to one side, out of the game, to prevent another player from picking them up. The Aim Of The Game Is To Post The Letters Into The Matching Coloured Post Boxes. With The Option To Be Played As A Single Player Activity Or Multi-Player Game, Post Box Game Is Great To Develop Hand-Eye Coordination, Promote Colour Recognition And Introduce First Game Play. Once Children Progress, They Can Also Begin To Read The Addresses On The Letters.
