Handleiding

• In a four-person game, the yellow

player forms the first team with

the red player. The yellow player is

the helper (hand symbol) and gives

the red player, who is the driver,

instructions for driving. In a three-

person game, red is the first helper and blue the first driver.

• A player who is not taking part in the current race will play the

role of the race official. He or she should seat himself or herself

in such a way that he or she has an open view of the race track.

Then he or she takes the smartphone, gives the “MAG-O …

MAG” starting signal, and starts the timer.

•

The helper gives the instructions right away, using words as well

as his or her index finger. Instructions such as “up,” “faster,”

“diagonally downward,” and “stop” are helpful. The helper

should avoid using “left” and “right,” since the driver on the

other side of the MAG-O-MAG setup might interpret these the

wrong way. The helper should support his or her instructions

with his or her index finger by pointing in the named direction.

When he or she does that, he or she should hold his or her finger

above the game board so the driver has a clear view.

Note: You will quickly notice that each player has his own way of

giving directions and driving. With a little practice, you will learn to

adjust to one another, and crashes will become less and less common.

INTO THE RAVINE

• If the drive magnet falls off the track

and lands in the ditch during the

race, the race official immediately

stops the timer.

• After the guide magnet has been

briefly pulled off to release the drive

magnet, the latter is retrieved from

the collecting tray.

Then, the helper places the drive magnet back on the start field. If

the magnet has already passed or contacted the yellow checkpoint

(wrench), he or she places the magnet on this checkpoint.

Note: In longer races across three quadrants, the start/finish field

also counts as a checkpoint.

• Then, the race official repeats the “MAG-O … MAG” starting

signal and restarts the timer.

The team continues the race from the starting point or from

a checkpoint if one has been reached, until reaching the finish

field.

REACHING THE FINISH

As soon as the team has reached the

finish field (it counts to just touch

the field), the race official stops the

timer and writes down the time.

THE TIME LIMIT

• For the short courses, a team has 60 seconds available to them

per race. In a three-person game, this applies to Rounds 1 to 3,

and Rounds 1 to 4 in a four-person game.

• For each of the long courses, there are 120 seconds available:

Round 4 in a three-person game and Rounds 5 and 6 in a four-

person game.

• If a team has exceeded the time limit, the game immediately

ends. Either 61 or 121 seconds is recorded.

Important: When you play the game for the first time, set the

time limit to 120 seconds for the short courses as well.

In later games, once you have a little more practice, 60 seconds

will be enough.

Next team: Then, the large marker is moved one row down on

the team board to determine the next team to drive the same race

course. In a four-person game, the round ends after two races.

In a three-person game, one round consists of three races, with a

third race held on the same race course.

ALLOCATION OF POINT CHIPS

• After each team has completed this race course,

the first round is over. Now the recorded times

are compared. Each player on the team that

completed the course in the shortest time gets two

one-point chips. Each player on the second-fastest

team gets a one-point chip. If two teams have the

exact same recorded times, all the players on both

teams get the same number of points.

Note: In a three-person game, the two players on the slowest team

are left empty-handed.

• Then the next round begins as indicated on the team board:

from the start field in the lower left quadrant to the finish field

in the lower right quadrant.

END OF GAME

After the final round has been assessed, every player counts up his or

her point chips. Whoever has the most points is the winner. In case

of a tie, the tied players share the victory.

Tip: You can also drive the courses in the opposite direction if you

want to try something new. And if you want a longer race, you can

extend the course by an extra quadrant.
