This is a game that comes in a real egg-box. 9 yellow plastic eggs and 1 yellow wooden egg (worth 2 points, the others are worth 1 point) and two dice one red and one white. Although it is, in fact, a childrens game, it is great fun when played by adults as well.
The point of the game is to have the most points. You throw one die, which gives you different possibilities, whether you can simply take an egg from the box (or steal from someone else if there are none left in the box), or you make it bounce on the table and everybody tries to catch it and other possibilities, or and that's where the name of the game comes from "Dance of the Eggs", you have to run around the table. But the difficulty is that if you take, catch or steal an egg you have a second die that you throw, that gives you the location where you have to put the egg; between your cheek and your shoulder, your chin and the breast, between your knees... At the first egg which falls to the ground, the game ends and the one having the most eggs wins the game. |
