Finally, the humans are gone and the animals are free. Time to raid the fridge! One by one the family animals bring delicious snacks like melon, cake, and peppers to their hiding place. Who can fill their stash the fastest? In Snack Happens, players take on the roles of a cat, mouse, dog, and parrot, whose goal is to fill their secret stash as full as possible with treats. To do this, the active player throws wooden chips as accurately as they can into the bottom box lid, which represents the refrigerator. Afterwards, depending on where the chips landed, the active player may choose to perform a matching action. All the other players in turn may then also choose and perform one of the actions marked by the thrown chips. Each new round, the next player around the table takes a turn tossing the snack chips into the fridge. The special actions Snack Box and Mixer provide additional excitement in this exciting children's game.
