Paraphrasing from the Swedish rules: "What is the aim of the game? To get your horse over the finish line. But, where is the finish line? Well, it can either be the start or the end line. The direction can change during the race, so the horse in the back could all the sudden be in the lead. Does it seem mad? Mmm, that's why it is named: The Mad race." You use a dice, but there are marks on the boards... with extra instructions. There's also a "roulette" for added surprises. Easy to play, easy to follow... no strategy: it's all about luck and laughter.
