It's Friday afternoon. After a busy work week at the milk carton office, the office beetles are eager to unwind at the Bubble Bar. As usual, the first team of beetles to arrive wins a free round of nectar soda. What better way to start off the weekend? The race is on to beat all to the bubble! Beetle to the Bubble is a clever, quick and easy to learn racing game for ages 8 and up. It plays in about 25 min. You win by getting all of your beetle team members to the finish tile — but your opponents are looking to mess with your plans, so choose your path wisely. Your beetles race over a track of colourful flowers. On your turn you play a card to move your beetle to the next flower with a corresponding colour. But there are a few twists: The track continually changes: when a beetle lands on a flower, that beetle’s colour will replace the flower’s colours You can earn additional cards by landing your beetle on top of another beetle You can hitch a ride: when a beetle moves, any beetles on top of it move along with it
