Die Mond Rakete

A simple roll and move game where players travel race from the earth to the moon. Players choose their course by the roll of the dice, with 1 and 2 travelling along a black path, 5 and 6 along a red path and 3 and 4 along a yellow path. Along the way various challenges are encountered such as faulty air supply in the rocket or not enough acceleration to leave earth and penalties are applied. Players pass through the constellations on route to the moon and landing on certain numbers assists or hinders the players progress. Landing on the moon is accomplished by throwing a 6 on the dice. First to land on the moon is the winner. The game was published by the Fritz Homann A.G company of Germany who produced a few board games to promote their Fri-Ho-Di margarine brand.
