Turtle Mania (Pegasus Games)

It's a beautiful day on the sunny island of Turtle Island. Understandably, the turtles prefer to frolic on the warm sandy beach rather than in the cold water, but unfortunately, there isn't enough space for everyone. In Turtle Mania, players try to find a spot on the beach for the shelled creatures. To do this, each round they must push a turtle from a jetty onto the beach, ideally without other turtles falling into the water, otherwise, it must be collected as a penalty. If a yellow turtle falls into the water, the active player gets a second turn. If someone has pushed three turtles of the same color or seven arbitrary ones off the island, that person loses and thus ends the game. The person with the fewest turtles wins.

Turtle Mania is a quick-to-learn dexterity game with a cute theme, fast turns, and heaps of turtles. To win here, in addition to a bit of luck, a steady hand is particularly needed.
