Played <u>JUNGLE RACE</u> with BB.
Played <u>JUNGLE RACE</u> with BB. At first gave a player a  <br>
chip for landing on a space matching the viewmaster slide.  <br>
Also if 2 players are on the same space, the  <br>
player - if both of their animals are on that space - whose  <br>
animal is more forward takes a chip from the other. The  <br>
first player to complete scores his chips x3, next his chips  <br>
x2, next x1, last (if 4 are playing) scores nothing.  <br>
This was much too complicated. Made a direct race of it,  <br>
allowing a player to remain in place if desired. This was a  <br>
little dull. Changed rule to force a player to move if possible,  <br>
even if it means moving back.
