Zoch showcases collaborative family game, Kleiner Drache Wirbelwind
Zoch debuted its latest family game at Spielwarenmesse last week, Kleiner Drache Wirbelwind.
Designed by Josep M. Allué and Dani Gomez, the game sees players try to help sun wizards reach cloud nine before the rain goblins do.
A rainbow-coloured bridge forms a walkway between the clouds, with cloud nine waiting at the end of the path. Together, players must attempt to bring all four sun wizards onto cloud nine before the three goblins. A dragon called Whirlwind, positioned high above the rainbow, carries a swinging ball that can create gusts of wind to blow the goblins off course.
To win the game, players must escort the sun wizards across the rainbow unscathed before too many goblins reach cloud nine.
