Gingerbread House*
A witch lived alone in her house deep in the forest, which she made entirely of gingerbread. However, rude fairy tale characters would eat away at her walls and windows. To solve her problem, she observed what types of gingerbread these greedy intruders preferred and devised a plan to get rid of them.
Players create a 3D structure by placing domino-like tiles in a 3x3 grid, covering symbols that allow for four types of gingerbread and special actions. Covering two of the same symbol provides bonuses, and players earn victory points for the highest structure, completing orders, and meeting specific conditions. The winner is the player with the most victory points at the end.
