The race starts on the small red dot at the gasometer in the lower left corner of the game board. The players take turns to roll and move one space. On some spaces events hinder or benefit the players. The die shows the colors red (upward), black (downward), blue (left or right), green (left half:diagonal up/right half: diagonal down), white (choice move). The player to reach the furthest red dot at the lower edge of the game board wins the game. If a balloon sets down on a space without a red dot it may begin again at the starting space. The game ends when 3 players have reached a red dot. —user summary
