The hamsters are taking a vacation. Everyone wants to hang out on the hammock! Carefully place your hamsters on the hammock and try to hang on without falling out. If the hammock tilts on your turn, all other players can send one of their hamsters for a rest on a fluffy beach towel. The first player with all hamsters on the hammock and resting on beach towels, wins the game! -description from the publisher
