Zoo Run: The Animal Rescue and Running Game for Kids

Get ready for the great escape... or the great race!

Zoo Run stands out with its ultra-intuitive "puzzle-matching" mechanic. The principle is simple: players have cards representing halves of animals (the front or back of a lion, panda, llama...). By aligning their cards side by side, they must try to put together as many complete animals as possible to trigger actions.

The concept? An evolving game with two distinct modes:

1. Cooperative Mode (Ages 4+) : "Free the animals!". All players work together to reassemble animals to help them escape the zoo before the zookeeper arrives.

2. Competitive Mode (Ages 6+) : "The race of the year!". Each reassembled animal allows you to move your own pawn along the track. The first to arrive wins!

Why Zoo Run is a family favorite:

• Observation Learning: The game stimulates shape recognition and spatial organization. Players must manipulate their cards in every direction to find the best combinations.

• Evolving and Durable: Thanks to its two game modes, Zoo Run grows with the child. It starts with cooperation to learn to play together, then moves to competition when the child is ready.

• Impeccable Material: As always with the publisher Loki, the material is superb. The wooden animal figurines are adorable, and the cards are thick, perfect for little hands.

• Quick Games: In 10 to 15 minutes, the game is over. It's the ideal format to capture the attention of the little ones without boring them.
