Action / Dexterity

The city is growing every day, with new buildings popping up on every vacant lot. You’ve been hired as a contractor to help develop a skyscraper that will reshape the city’s skyline. If you work hard and plan smart, you can earn the title of Master Builder and be immortalized as part of the city’s rich history.

LOTS is a 3 dimensional puzzle game for 1 to 4 players where contractors are competitively working to build the same tower on a vacant Lot. Players will have to use spatial recognition, color coordination, and just a hint of dexterity to score the most points before the games end.

From the back of the box:

Here's a game that will have you walking, jumping, and hopping all around the house! Ask a player to give you a card with a specific number of steps to take. Then choose an object that you think you can reach in exactly that number. Can you walk to the fridge in 9 steps? How about hop to something that starts with the letter A in 15? Reach your goal and walk away with a win!

Ages 5 and up.

Kids learn estimating distance and spacial relations.

The deck of 55 cards includes:
20 monkey cards with wild monkeys (red cards numbered 1 to 4); 20 monkey cards with mild monkeys (blue cards numbered 1 to 4); 8 Gotcha Gator cards; 6 banana cards (3 rotten and 3 fresh) and one Wild Gotcha Gator card.

The deck is dealt out to all players who make a face down pile in front of them. Players turn over the top card of their decks simultaneously and place the card in the center of the table. Players attempt to be the first to spot one of two types of matches: Two different colored cards with the same value on different players' piles OR two different colored cards of the same value on one player's pile. The first player to spot it slaps the pile and shouts "Go Bananas!" That player then takes the pile(s).

Additionally, players must watch out for matching Gotcha Gator cards (same number as card previously played in one player's pile) and rotten banana/fresh banana matches as well - each having its own shout as well.

The first player to collect all the cards in the deck is the winner.

It's time to for vacation! How quickly can you pack your bags? The quickest one to pack their bags wins!

Get Packing contains four suitcases, 52 plastic items that you pack, and 30 illustrated cards featuring several difficulty levels.
