A cooperative game for children 5 years plus, with adult supervision due to the candle. A real hit in our household - a magical game.

Front Game: The dwarfs hide in the shade of the trees and are sought by the wandering light. In the dark, the burning tealight wanders through the forest looking for the little dwarfs in their shadow hiding places. If a dwarf is hit by a ray of light, it is enchanted and must not move. The other dwarfs try to redeem him. For this they have to wait until the light has moved far enough away so that another dwarf in the shadow can reach him. The dwarfs all want to meet under a tree while the candle tries to charm all the dwarfs. Who will win?  

Back Game: The dwarfs avoid the shadows in the forest and jump over the fire. The light stays in its place. The dwarfs must wander through the shadows and jump over the fire. If you stay in the shade, wait until a player flashes a beam of light and helps him to do so. The game is over when all the dwarfs have come home safely.

The simple and the fairytale forest shadow game contain the same games with the same rules. The simple forest shadow game has a thin, folded green-brown game board and comes in a box.
