  4. Place the mould on the sand and press it down to imprint the map in the sand.
  5. Each player chooses a piece to use during the game.
  6. Players take turns to roll a die to indicate which gem to place their piece on.
  7. The youngest player should roll the dice first, the player to his left next.
  8. Place your piece on the jewel indicated by the cube. For example, if a die shows a gem, place your piece on the matching gem on the sand.
  9. Only one player can be in a place.
  10. Roll the dice and pull out the rod!
  11. Take turns to roll the die to indicate which stick to pull out. The order is as before.
  12. If the die shows the colour of a rod that is no longer inserted, roll the die until the die shows the colour of a rod that is still inserted.
  13. If you roll the dice and several colours appear, you can decide which stick to pull out.
  14. If the dice point in the opposite direction, the game continues in the opposite direction. This means that you throw again, then the player who threw before you throws.
  15. If you fall through the quicksand, you are out of the game. You don’t have to stand firmly on the ground all the time, but you can sink slowly through the sand.
  16. As long as you don’t fall to the bottom unit, you’re still in the game!
