Players strive to finish the game with the most valuable canoes where length of completed canoes, prey and booty, Hunter with Prey and special cards all add to your score. Players can use Indians with a bow or lasso to affect other players canoes. They can also use completed canoes to attack others with devastating results. The original Pelikan edition (Ogallala), in their flat box series, included player mats and allowed for 2 to 4 players.
