A crazy game with very dubious rules! Reach the foot and answer the question and perform the task on the top card, to win. Gameplay option specifies a set number of award cards.

Win award cards for clever answers or "good egg" entertaining performances. Lose points if you're "about as funny as nine day old Yak's milk under your pillow". Land on a space with a character type and take on that persona until your next move.

If the other players decide you have made no effort, they may send you back to the start and not let you have any pudding!

Personas; Welsh poet, Scottish gamekeeper, Irish clergyman, English public schoolboy, Yorkshire miner, Devon yokel, Spanish waiter, Japanese tourist, Texas rancher, Canadian lumberjack, Swedish chef and French hairdresser
Tasks include;
- without telling anyone what is written on the card, start an argument and then immediately stop after two minutes
- recite the longest, funniest joke that you know, but change the punch line to something really inappropriate
Trivia questions include;
- what does the colonel do in the sketch where Dino and Luigi attempt to extort protection money from him and why?
- what is the surname of But a snivelling little rat faced and his wife Dreary fat boring old?
Awards include;
- the 'What is the point of this award' award
- the 'Having genitalia that most resembles a vegetable' award
Even some of these award cards have challenges on them which, if not performed, must be returned to the pack.

The rules are printed on the box base. A rare game.
