RULES:

The object of the game is to be the first player to capture all the aliens on their card. With 2-5 players use 1 pen, 1 die, and 1 shaker egg. Give each person a player mat. Younger players may use the side with geometric shapes while all other players use the alien side. Choose one player to be the alien hunter. This person receives the pen. The player to the right of them receives the shaker egg.

The alien hunter rolls the die and begins circling aliens on their card that match the shape rolled. If you roll a question mark, rotate the die to whatever shape you want before circling. You may reroll the die on your turn anytime you want as many times as you want. You must completely circle 1 alien to count it, you cannot half circle, or circle multiple aliens. The circle does not need to be perfect and you cannot draw a line, dash, dot, or X, it must be a circle.

As soon as the alien hunter has rolled the die, the player with the shaker egg begins shaking. When shaking, the die must come out of the well and settle back into it, you cannot gently roll over the die to what you want. As soon as the egg shaker rolls the alien head, they take the marker from the Alien hunter and they become the alien hunter. The person to the right is now the new egg shaker. Continue until one player has circled every alien.

In a 6-10 player game, everything is the same, except you have 2 alien hunters and egg shakers instead of one. Start the game with each alien hunter opposite the table from the other. Everything happens simultaneous. The first player to circle all the aliens on their card wins.
