Chase in English

The game comes in a known stable, responsive board of Ravensburger and is ready to play in no time. First of containing the game tiptoi pin must be loaded with the necessary audio file of the "English-detectives". This is simple to install on your PC. The detailed instructions are included with the game.

After that the individual rotor disks, medals and rings marking punch, put down the board and away you go.

The Schedule is stable, and printed with attractive colors. Also the individual game boards are very lovingly illustrated.

Game:

The aim is to prevent Dr. Mad, bringing the city in terror. By tiptoi pen, children are now piloted by the individual tasks to different destinations. The general tasks in between, such as the announcement, how many fields you can go, or where the next destination is, are in German.

The fundamental tasks of the destinations are in German (read, it explains what you have to do) - the permanent abandonment (varies at the games over and over again) but then in English. For children with no prior knowledge, the game is therefore not without the help of another person who understands English, possible.

Tasks:

In the toy store toys need to be re-inked, the tiptoi Pen declared in German what to do and then called in English three toys.

In fast-food restaurant is explained in German that has the assistant of Dr.Mad compile the desired breakfast. The appropriate breakfast ingredients are named in English.

In Dr. Mads laboratory a three-digit combination is entered. (The numbers are called in English.)

In the museum a laughing gas bomb needs to be uninstalled, the colors of the wires are here in English.

At the zoo, it is necessary to close the animal enclosure, the Mad Dr. opened. (The animals are listed in English.)

In TV Studio a saboteur to be unmasked. (The hair color, the clothes and the shoes are English spoken.)

On the open-air stage English instruments must be recognized.

At Headquarters it is important to find a bug. Here, it is easier. You have to tap the individual items with the tiptoi pin and then the English terms are told.

Next there are special orders which have to be fulfilled. Again, it is necessary to understand the English words for it.

For each task fulfilled the players get a medal, they have the task not solved, Dr. Mad gets the medal.

At the end, therefore, does not win a single player, but when, then all lose to Dr. Mad or all win against him. This variant is my daughter very well.

Conclusion:

Understands a child does not speak English as our daughter (7), it may at first play quite come to frustrations. It is therefore necessary that another person is present who can translate. The pronunciation of each English word is not always so clear to understand how I imagine it. Every now and then I had little understanding of problems (ie, I used the word not heard correctly and could therefore not translate). After a few rounds, it's easier.

Generally a nice game, very good presentation, good idea and good implementation. Sure, in time, a possibility first English words to understand.

A bit of a shame is that the tasks at the destination are always the same and vary only by different numbers, colors, objects or animals. That has a certain monotony, which is still characterized crowded at the moment when our daughter in the background, that they tried to understand the English words.

The price-performance ratio, the ERA should not exceed 39.99 euros, otherwise the price is definitely not relative. We have bought the game for about 32 euros, in mid-October and that price is fully justified.

Despite the small drawbacks a recommendable game.
