Benjamin Blümchen must represent the zoo director to check and count that there are correct number of animals at zoo. The cards with the animals are stacked and covered with the Benjamin Blümchen card. The 12 animals at the zoo are placed easily accessible for everyone in the middle. The player whose turn it is draws the top animal card and all players look at it. The player who first recognizes which animal is missing or is too many, takes the animal figure from the table. Who gets the proper figure, receives the card. The beast goes back to the middle. If nobody got the right animal, the card goes out of play. When all cards are played, the child with the most cards wins.
