Midgard

A free game by BARKBRAIN

Boarlet Derby

You don’t run. You still sweat every space.

Five boarlets race round a 16-space fairground, piling onto each other as they go. You don’t control any of them — you are a bettor. Call who leads and who comes last, and whoever ends with the most G coins wins.

Boarlet Derby — a free piglet racing and betting game to play with friends

One thing a turn. The trick is picking the moment.

Lap tickets

Back the piglet you think leads this lap. The first ticket pays the most, so waiting costs you.

Stir the cauldron

Draw a die from the pot and one piglet runs. You earn a coin at the end of the lap, but you may hand someone else the win.

Cheer drum or mud pit

Lay a trap on the track. A drum pushes a piglet on, mud drags it back, and you earn a coin every time one stops there.

The Cup and the Spoon

Lay a secret card on the overall winner or the very last. Nobody sees it until the end, and the earlier you call it the more it pays.

How the track works

  1. Piglets pile up

    A piglet that moves carries everyone riding on it. The one on top counts as ahead.

  2. Two run backwards

    Shadow and Frost run the other way and drag any racer riding them along.

  3. Laps pay out

    After 5 stirs the lap ends: right tickets pay, wrong ones cost a coin.
