About this game

Get your monkey racers to safety from the erupting volcano, by crossing the dangerous river, and avoiding the hungry lion. By rolling a 10-sided die, players get to move their own team of 4-6 monkeys towards the safe space, or move the lion on it's search for a monkey snack, or move the turtles, ferrying monkeys along the river. The game is won by the first player to get their whole team of monkeys to safety. Tropic Race is the childrens version of the family game Arctic Race by danspil released in 2020. Tropic Race is a new take on traditional roll and move games like Pachisi, with a lot of player interaction, and the choice to take different paths along the race, some more risky than others. -description from designer
