• Fit the yellow ring on top of the column board.
Object of the Game
Be the first player to reach the top level and correctly answer a Think Big! question.
Set up:
• Divide and shuffle the cards into piles according to the border colors (colours), which match the levels on the game board. Place each pile (question-side facing forward) into the card box in order:
Think Big! (Yellow)
Level 3 (Green)
Level 2 (Red)
Level 1 (Blue)
• Have each player choose a pawn and place it on the Start space on the bottom blue ring of the game board.
How to Play the Game
• Determine who will go first.
• On your turn, choose a card that matches the color (colour) level of the ring your pawn is on. Do not look at the back side of the card.
• Read the card aloud and answer the question. Then, turn the card over and read aloud to check your answer.
• If you answered correctly, follow the directions on the back of the card. Keep the card in your pile.
• If you answered incorrectly, return the card to the back of the box in the appropriate level. Your turn is now over.
• Card actions include moving your pawn or moving any player’s
u
p
pawn (including your own). Move pawns ahead in a clockwise direction on the rings and back in a counterclockwise direction.
• If a pawn lands on , move it up to Start on the ring level above.
• If a pawn lands on a black hole , move it down to Start on the ring level below.
Big Idea! cards do not require players to answer questions. Instead, read the idea on the card aloud and then follow the directions. Play continues with the next player.
• If you collect two question cards from the same color (colour) level, you may immediately advance your pawn up to the next level’s Start space. Note: Ignore the action on the back of the 2nd question card—only move up to the next level. Return the two cards to the back of the appropriate area of the card box. Play continues with the next player unless you advance to the top level (see Winning the Game). For a longer game, have players collect three cards from the same level to advance.
Winning the Game
• After reaching the top level, immediately choose a Think Big! (yellow) question card from the box. Do not look at the back side of
the card.
• Read the card aloud and answer the question. Then, turn the card over and read aloud to check your answer.
• If you answered correctly, the game is over—you’ve won!
• If you answered incorrectly, return the card to the back of the box. You must also move back down to the Start space on Level 3 (green). Play continues with the next player.
