Adios Calavera!

Description

Every year at harvest time, on the Day of The Dead, the souls of the deceased visit the world of the living to celebrate with their loved ones. There is dancing, singing, drinking and eating! Before everyone goes their separate way again the living and the dead make a bet: whichever group makes it back again to their own world first has say over the other one for a year. The race begins … A tactical race between the living and the dead for 2 players. Gameplay: One player takes the role of the dead, the other the living. Every player has 8 pieces and sets them up on a edge of a roughly 9x9 board next to the edge of the opposing player. Players are thus not directly opposite to each other but at a right angle. The first player to get his or her 8 pieces off his or her opposing side of the board wins the game. On your turn you move one of your pieces. A piece has as many movement points as pieces on the line from where it is standing orthogonally (i.e. at a right angle) to the main direction towards your goal. This includes all pieces: both your own and your opponent’s, including the piece being moved itself. Some pieces also have special abilities such as moving through obstacles, switching with other pieces or additional movement.
