Mahé is a Seychelles island popular not only with tourists. Sea turtles also visit Mahé to lay their eggs here, the more the better. This is exactly what the game is about. Each player moves a turtle in a circle around the island. Sometimes a turtle can be carried by another turtle. Every time a turtle reaches or crosses the island's beach, it lays as many eggs there as the top clutch card shows. When the pile of clutch cards is used up, seven more eggs can be laid in the last round. Of course, the player whose turtle could lay the most eggs wins.
