footnotes =Yipes is a pop-o-matic
board game similar toTrouble in which players compete to be the first player to the end of the board, thus turning into the "Monster." The game adds a twist by having all players reverse direction when this occurs, with the the "Monster" attempting to pass (thus "eating") eating the remaining players.Game play
A pop-o-matic game where players race to be the first to reach the LABORATORY, become the MONSTER and then chase the other players back to the start, trying to "eat" them on the way. The other players try to flee the MONSTER and safely reach the ENTRANCE SPACE.
Points are scored for becoming the MONSTER, reaching the ENTRANCE SPACE without being eaten and for being eaten (for good taste!). The player with the most points after 3 rounds is the winner.
