Who will hop the farthest? 4 Hopper families are on vacation on tropical islands: the seals, the crabs, the octopuses and the frogs. They decide to have a race for fun. Who will be the fastest?

Happy Hoppers is a fun family race with cute cubic sea animals, in which you will try to cross the finish-line the first and gather as much pearls (victory points) as you can.

Each player has 3 Hoppers and a finish-line of their color that they are aiming to cross sooner than the other players cross theirs. As soon as any 5 Hoppers cross their finish lines, the game ends.

A player’s turn consists of two steps:

 Roll 3 dice
 Move the Hoppers according to the following rules
     The dice indicate, which Hopper (big, medium or small) move and how many times.
     Hoppers move clockwise.
     If a Hopper stops on an island with another Hopper, it jumps on top of it forming a stack. When a lower Hopper moves, it moves with all the Hoppers it has on top.
     As soon as a Hopper crosses their finish-line, they take a place on a central island, which will score them the more points, the sooner they did that.
     When a Hopper stops their movement, they receive a bonus from the island.
