Ask a grown-up to help you set up the game. Carefully remove all the

pieces from the perforated panels. To set up the game board:

• Insert the pegs 1 into the 24 holes of the game device 2.

• Cover everything with the game board surface 3 .

• Put the traps 4 into the four compartments of the inlay.

• Fit the utensils 5 onto the pegs as shown in the

illustration.

When playing for the ﬁrst time

Before you begin

• Have the HEXBUG® nano® 6, bug tokens 7

and die 8 ready.

• Each player chooses a corner with a trap.

If there are less than four players, barricade the

unused traps with a door 9. Surplus doors will

not be needed. With only two players, choose

traps opposite from each other.

• Turn all the utensils to one of the following

starting positions.

If the die shows a knife, fork or spoon, quickly turn that one

corresponding utensil.

Example: if the die shows a knife, turn one knife.

If the die shows a question mark, quickly turn any one utensil; either a knife,

fork, or spoon.

Let the game begin

1. Start the HEXBUG® nano®

The youngest player starts. Turn on the the HEXBUG® nano® by ﬂipping the

switch found underneath the device and place it in the middle of the game board.

2. Roll the die

3. Turning utensils

4. Trap the HEXBUG® nano®

The HEXBUG® nano® will crawl all across the

game board. You can direct its path and lure it

into the trap by strategically turning utensils.

Try to change its path so it ends up in your

trap. As soon as it falls into a trap, the

player who owns the trap receives a

bug token.

Turn off the HEXBUG® nano®

momentarily and set all the utensils back to form one of the starting positions.

The player who won the last bug token begins the next round.

End of game

The game is over as soon as someone has collected ﬁve bug tokens.

Tips for playing with the HEXBUG® nano®:

• Don’t get it jammed when turning utensils.

• Help it back on its feet if it turns over.

• Nudge it if it gets stuck in a corner.

Always turn the utensils so that they lock into

place. The utensils should not be left at an angle.

If a player takes too long, the other players can tell

them to hurry up.

Play continues in a clockwise direction. The next

player rolls the die and turns the corresponding

utensil.
