📖 About This Game
In Malefiz or Barricade you and your opponents race your 5 tokens from your home base to the finish along wide and/or narrow paths. You may pick up "barricades" if you land on them exactly with the DIE ROLL and move them to any space above the first row to block everyone's move. No one can move past a barricade unless it is landed on exactly.
Re-published 1982 and 1991. The most famous box cover, that shown at the Ravensburger link below, was designed by Jan van Heusden.
