In Turtle Mania, players try to help their different-colored turtles onto an island. The island has limited space that can't possibly accommodate all of these sun-bathing turtles. Players must strategically place their turtles onto the island, even if it means bumping opponents' turtles off the edge.

The game box comes with an Ocean board, an Island board, 4 palm trees, 36 turtles, a bag, and two sets of instructions (English, German). This game is for two to four players, ages 5 and up, and plays in 15-25 minutes. It will retail for $27.99.

Pegasus Spiele also recently release First Rat, a new strategy board game, into U.S. retail (see "'First Rat'").
