My comments: This simply is a fun two-player game. Each side has 3 round, flat "stones", an island, and a moose (even though they are moose, I think it is called Elk Fest because the original German name, Elchfest.) You place your moose on your island and the three stones next to it. Each turn you "flick" the stone (hit the side of it with your finger much like a cue hits a pool ball) into position in order to move your moose across the table from stone to stone. Whoever gets their moose to the opponent's island first wins.
The game can be played by anyone that can flick a stone. Put the pieces in a bag and carry it with you for the kids to take out in times of boredom (like a restaurant.) It's a fun, quick game to play anytime.
