Description from the publisher: On the edge of town there is a friendly Monster that lives in a cave. When the Monster grows hungry, a deep growl rumbles across the land. The town citizens know that this means trouble, for it is at these times that the Monster seeks out its favorite snack: Farmer Brown’s sheep! A group of clever teenagers are determined to stop the Monster from reaching its goal. Monster Trap is a cooperative game for 1 to 6 players who work together to set traps that will discourage the Monster from eating the sheep and send it scurrying back to its cave. The players must successfully complete a number of traps that the Monster sets off before it reaches Farmer Brown’s Farm to win the game. The players grab resources from Monster Trap Corp's conveyor belts and get them out to the traps any way they can before time runs out. Monster Trap is the ultimate resource gathering and placement game. Each trap card has a list of resources (colored cubes) that are needed to complete a trap. The players move their tokens to pick up the resources from the conveyor belt, carry those resources to the trap and place them. After all resources for a trap have been placed, then the trap is considered set and will trigger when the monster moves onto that space.
