In Cinderella at Midnight, draw and lay cards to create a maze Cinderella must explore to complete her tasks. Start in the garden to befriend mice, find lizards, and pick a pumpkin - but beware of too many interrupting bells! Return to the fairy Godmother and transform the maze by flipping the cards to reveal the pumpkin carriage and the palace, where new tasks await: find a key, meet the prince, and drop a slipper. With each stroke of the clock, the maze shifts - can Cinderella evade her stepfamily and reach home before midnight? Game Features: Solo gameplay with dynamic choices, blending strategy and luck as you place cards and choose your path. A shifting maze that changes with every game, ensuring endless variety and replayability. Double-sided, hand-illustrated cards filled with details that bring Cinderella's world to life. -description from the publisher
