The game promotes the development of planning skills, spatial
orientation, operational thinking, and logical thinking.
Number of players: 2–4.
The plot of the game. Your secret agent must complete a
special mission. And to do this, you will have to quickly get to different corners of the city, receive tasks, meet other agents, and all this - in conditions of the strictest secrecy.
Game contents: 1 park card, 23 square cards, 23 task cards,
12 cards (4 sets of three cards each) of red, yellow, green and blue agents, 4 secret agent figures.
The goal of the game is to complete as many tasks
as possible and collect the most cards.
Preparing for the game. Place the park card in the middle of the table. Place the remaining cards in random order around so that the “park” card is in the middle and you get a field of 5 by 5 cards. Near the main card, leave one field free (this is the city pond).
Shuffle the task cards, place the pile in a place convenient for all players, and reveal the first four cards. Place secret agent figures yellow, red, green 2 Machine Translated by Google
and blue colors to the same images on square cards. The first four cards according to which the investigator figures were placed are returned to the deck and shuffled. If there are two or three players, then the cards used to determine the location of secret agents do not participate further in the game. Then each player takes one task card from the pile and places it face down on the table opposite him.
Game option for beginners. To get familiar with the game,
especially if there are smaller players involved, you can eliminate the secret agent cards entirely and/or play with the mission cards upside down (so other players can't see what mission you're doing and can't block your agent).
The main version of the game. Each player
determines which color agent he will represent and receives an additional three secret agent cards of the corresponding color. Players place these cards face down in front of them. (For example, a blue secret agent receives blue-backed cards.)
Progress of the game. The secret agent who is located furthest
from the free field starts the game. This player looks at his task card and tries to get to the desired field as quickly as possible. On his turn, the player can move square cards five times (including the field cards containing any secret agent) and must move his secret agent 2 steps. (You can only walk at right angles, for example, two steps to the left or one step forward and one step to the right, etc., but not diagonally.)
The sequence of performing these actions can be any. It is important
to comply with some conditions. • You can’t break up your move: first take a step, then move card and take one more step. • You cannot step on a card if there is another agent on it. • You cannot step on the “park” card • You cannot step on an empty field (this is a “city pond”; the agent will get wet). If a player cannot take two steps on his turn, he must remain in place. It is allowed to move cards. The task is considered completed if, at the end of all movements during the turn, the player stops on the correct field card. In this case, the player turns the card face down and places it on the table in front of him, takes a new card with a task for the next turn. The turn of the move passes to the other player. 3 Machine Translated by Google
The player must complete the task. The task may require more than one attempt. Example: – an agent – assignment card - target
– moving the map – agent steps
The agent must Move one card Moving the card The agent The agent takes reach the to an empty one with the moves to the next the 2nd step - the "fountain" agent card goal is achieved! place to an empty space (the player decided to move only
2 cards)
Game option for beginners. The game continues until the deck runs out of task cards. The winner is the player who collected the most completed cards. our tasks.
Main option. Exchange with tasks: When any secret agent
successfully completes two tasks (in other words, when he collects two envelopes), he must transfer the secret assignment to another agent. Select one of your agent cards (with envelopes on the back) and give it to the agent of the selected color (the same as shown on the card), and the selected agent must give you in return one of his completed task cards (one of the cards with "Park" written on the shirt). The new task will be known only to the two of you, since this card is placed face down. For example, a blue agent plans to exchange information with a yellow agent. He selects a card with a yellow agent and gives it to the player representing the yellow agent. The yellow agent opens his cards with completed tasks and gives one of the cards to the blue agent, who will now have to complete this task. Only two agents now know about the mission. When a player hands over a completed task card, the resulting agent card replaces it during the count.
Example: The green player received the "bus" card and was on his way to completing the "cash" task, but was forced to give the "bus" to the red player, receiving an agent card. Thus, he had no cards of completed tasks left in his hands, although he completed one. In this case, the received agent card remains 4 Machine Translated by Google
he has to control completed tasks, and when the green player completes the “cash desk” mission, he must transfer the secret assignment to another agent, since he has already completed two tasks.
Attention! At the end of the game, the agent card received is
not taken into account when counting, only cards with tasks are taken into account.
If a player has no secret agent cards left, he continues to play only
with mission cards.
Game over. The game ends when there is not a single card left in the deck of cards with tasks and at least one of the players is not able to take part in the exchange of tasks. All cards with completed tasks are counted and the winner is determined.
Game option for 2 or 3 players:
As with 4 players, each player can move any agent figure card, so free investigator figures also remain on the board. If a player needs to get a quest card from an agent that no one is playing as, they instead draw a card from the quest deck. We remind you that if there are two or three players, then the cards used to determine the location of secret agents are further in the game do not participate. Machine Translated by Google
