After releasing two volumes of Croque-pattes, Mickaël and Didier invited young and old to play!
Michael Garapousse and Didier Delorme have released two volumes of their book Croche-pattes tome II. Having put an end to this long adventure, despite the idea of why the third volume was not released, they, in the aftermath of it, launched the implementation of a children’s game on the theme of these books. A new practical game that can be played between children and even among adults by adding certain elements such as ponds, labyrinths and gardens. There is everything you need to introduce more difficult elements into the game.
In the variant, which is called more difficult, it is necessary to capture moles, and in the one that is considered the easiest, it is necessary to capture power. You can also, if you don’t have enough time to play, play a game that only lasts a quarter of an hour.
Our partners searched for everything that allows players to play this game: a short game, a long game and even a quick game.
As Didier points out: “There are actually three matches in one!”
It took a lot of work to assemble this game, which required many techniques to present: “We found people, like Guy, in Miélan, who helped us a lot. The printer applied varnish, so that the game is not too bright.”
While in Toulouse, Didier tested the game by playing several children. “All children from 5 to 7 years old appreciate playing there for over an hour and 30!”.
It will go on sale soon, but we still have to find a way to produce it. Mickaël and Didier are in contact with the Artip group, communicating in Auch. Our friends are also considering going to the Salon du livre in Bordeaux for a presentation. He follows…
