**Game description:**  A game of counting, adding points of the treasures you gain along the path and avoiding traps in the way.

- Each treasure is worth points: houses - 15 points, coins - 10 points, game pieces - 5 points
- If you find a house in a cup, you receive one extra coin 
- If you land on a pebble which is in the middle of the gameboard (the face) - you are trapped under the eyes until another player lands on that spot and releases you
- Depending on where you land, you can get treasure AND a trap - or even bonus treasure
- Bridges mean slide to the next spot during the same turn
- Move across the board by rolling dice
- The game ends when you reach the end of the game board, whoever has the most points, wins
