Splash Party is a fun summer game where your mission is to push everyone else into the water at a pool party. Players are given a colour in secret. Each turn, a player moves a meeple of choice 1-3 spaces and knocks the other meeple into the water. The last player standing around the pool wins!
To set it up, you randomly place the meeples on the spaces around the pool. Then you shuffle the six colour tokens face down and deal one to each player. If less than 6 people are playing, the unused tokens stay face down on the table. You secretly look at the colour you’ve been given and keep it face down in front of them.
On your turn, you take ANY meeple from around the pool and turn it over to show everyone the number. You then move the meeple the corresponding number of spaces (1, 2 or 3) in either direction. They cannot do a u-turn whilst moving. If your turn ends on a space occupied by another meeple, you push that meeple into the pool and replace it with the meeple you took your turn with.
The game continues and turns proceed in a clockwise direction, following the 3 steps above. Once a player’s third meeple is pushed into the water, they reveal their token and are eliminated from the game.
If you move your meeple over the diving board space or land on it, you can guess one of your opponent's colours. If you guess correctly, the opponent in question reveals their token and pushes their own meeples into the pool and they are eliminated. But, if you guess incorrectly, you must reveal your own token and push all of your meeples in the water, eliminating yourself from the game.
When there are only 2 colours left around the pool: the player whose meeple is closest to the diving board wins the game.
