From the back of the package
"Help! Save me from the Mash Machine! I used to be a simple spud on the farm, but now I'm trapped in a crazy kitchen and I need your help to escape in one piece! If I get crinkled, smashed, chopped or sliced by the Mash Machine, you'll need Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head to help make me a whole spud again. Help me get back to the farm quick before I become someone's side dish!"
Uh oh! Your little spud pals are in big trouble — they’re in the kitchen and they could be made into “food”. Mold potato pal pawns out of PLAY-DOH modeling compound and then use the spinner to move them across the board. But be careful of where you land, or else your spud buddy could get snipped, sliced, pressed into “fries” or cranked into “chips”. Help your pal get out of the kitchen and back to the farm first and you’re the winner! Includes gameboard (non-stick), 4 two-ounce cans of PLAY-DOH Brand Modeling Compound, spinner, 8 Mash Machine parts, 2 potato molds, 2 gameboard pegs and instructions.
