Description
Hare & Tortoise is a classic racing game that's easy to learn and fun to play. Designed by David Parlett and first published in 1973, it's a game that's stood the test of time. Players take on the role of either the speedy hare or the slow and steady tortoise, racing to the finish line while managing their resources - in this case, carrots. The goal is to time your arrival at the finish line perfectly, with just enough carrots to cross over. With simple rules and a playtime of just 45 minutes, Hare & Tortoise is a great game for 2 to 6 players. It's a clever exercise in arithmetic, requiring players to balance their speed with their resource management. The game has some necessary text, but it's easily memorized or referenced with a small crib sheet. Overall, Hare & Tortoise is a unique and entertaining game that's perfect for families and casual gamers alike.
