Description
A postal delivery game where each player acts as a postal worker delivering parcels to the other players.
Turns are played simultaneously, and every player has the same 4 action cards and starts with 6 parcel delivery quota. There are 4 turns and 3 rounds in the game and the game ends by the end of the 3rd round.
In this game, as a postman, you have to deliver parcels to do your job, or else you are fired. However, you also have to obtain points in the game. At the end of 3 rounds if the 6 parcels are not delivered, you are fired from the job and lose the game. The winner by the end of three rounds is the one with the most points.
