“A Game Based On The Popular Children’s Classic.” Standard spin-and-move routine with added requirement of collecting an object as you go, ala “The Game of Life.” Players move their token from “My Early Home” to “My Last Home” along board while collecting “Lucky Horseshoe” markers.
The board spaces trace the story of “Black Beauty,” affect player movement (through “gallop” indicators), and trigger draws of “Luck” cards (which either instruct the player to “Pick A Lucky Horseshoe” or lament “Better Luck Next Time”). Winner is determined by being the first to reach the board’s final space with a minimum of four horseshoes.
Includes board, movement tokens (4), “Luck” cards (10), “Lucky Horseshoes” (20), and spinner.
