Hoppla Lama (2003)

About this game

The volcano spits fire! Courageous Indios get moving with their llamas. They want to draw as close as possible to the crater to see if their village is in danger. With great delicacy, they persuade their llamas to move closer and closer to the crater's rim. Beware, however: whoever gets too close to the crater, starts over again from the beginning! A winner of the 2003 Concours International de Créateurs de Jeux de Société.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
