Players in turn try to roll the most valuable animal combinations. During his turn the player has three dice rolls; for the first roll with all five dice; for the second and third roll the players may pick up as many dice as they want and re-roll. Players can also skip the second and third roll, while the value of the combination is noted. When all 12 places are filled, the values are added, the player with the highest total wins. From the publisher, "Whoever collects many monkeys, tigers or camels can score lots of points in this classic critter game of dice."
