BEHIND THE GAME
The clashing of metal against track, engines roaring, steam billowing out of the exhaust— Choo Choo! As soon as you hear the whistle, you know just what it is. It's Alice the Train, a colorful steam locomotive that takes animals to the zoo. This game is based on the children's book of the same name. The book was created first as a Japanese/English bilingual book to promote English language learning in Japan and to aid in Japanese education outside of Japan. The game is therefore, language independent and while there are many small pieces in this game, it is designed to be a gateway for toddlers and young children into the wonderful world of boardgaming. |
