One player is chased across Central London by the other players. Reach your home destination to win. If any player draws level or overtakes you, they win.


To start, throw the dice. The lowest becomes the pursued car and throws the dice again to choose the starting point (there are 5 numbered in West London) and destination (there are 5 numbered in East London). Throw a 6 to choose any. Place the pursued car 12 spaces ahead of the chosen starting point and throw the dice again to move.

Cars may move in any direction but cannot double back. Overcome hazards along the way such as traffic holdups (miss 1 throw), road under repair (miss 2 throws), traffic congestion (miss 2 throws) and traffic diverted (follow direction arrows but don’t double back).
