Description

Do you like lorries and driving?

Here’s something for you.

You are a lorry driver working for the Speedy–Krate Haulage Co. based at the lorry depot at Upper Snotting. The owner of the company, Algernon P. Speedy-Krate, has in place a ‘Star Employee’ scheme that sees the driver who delivers the most consignments in a day getting a prize. Last week, it was a BIG bucket of mint choc chip ice cream.

Competition is fierce.

You have a set amount of time in which to do the deliveries but, unfortunately, there are lots of things that may get in your way of doing them. You may have an engine problem or a closed road ahead means taking a big diversion. There might be a policeman that requires you to turn back but, then again, you might be unloaded by a forklift quicker than expected or find a shorter lorry route.

Once everyone has returned to the lorry depot, the driver that has delivered the most goods is the winner.

There are many twists and turns providing fun and laughter along the way.

Set a timer to allow 15 minutes per person playing (2 players,30 minutes - 3 players, 45 minutes etc.) then, when the buzzer goes, each player has 5 turns in which to return to the start/finish area. There are penalties for taking more than the 5 turns... It can be played by one person who can then play again and try to beat their previous score or it can be played by as many people as you can fit around the table.

The rules are really easy to read and understand so it's a very good family game.

You are very welcome to download the 'how to play', the timer explanation sheet and the score sheets right now for free to help you decide if this game is suitable for your needs. They are NOT included in the box so you will need them when you buy the game anyway.

You don’t need to know anything about lorries or how to drive to play it.

Thank you for visiting my shop page and I do hope that you go on to buy and enjoy a copy of this game.

Best wishes,

Norman the Northman
