Nino Delfino

"After a lovely day at the beach the seals are taking their beach balls home happily. But Nino the cheeky dolphin isn't done playing. With one bold leap, he always shoots from the water and snags the balls away from the seals. Where he will pop out again? Only those seals who predict his clever moves can escape Nino. Whoever brings home two of their balls first is the winner! Who will find the best route to take?"

(Description from publisher, translated from German)

"Nach einem wunderschönen Tag am Meer tragen die Robben ihre Bälle vergnügt nach Hause. Doch der freche Delfin Nino findet kein Ende. Mit einem gewagten Sprung schießt er immer wieder aus dem Wasser und stibitzt dreist die Bälle der Robben. Alle fiebern mit: Wo wird er wieder herausspringen? Nur wer seine Robben clever zieht, kann Nino entwischen. Wer als Erster zwei Bälle nach Hause gebracht hat, gewinnt das spritzige Spiel! Wer meistert den Weg am besten?"

(Description from publisher, in original German)

This is a game for children, with seals going around a circular board, trying to take their metal-marble-balls back home (the destination). However, a dolphin stands poised in the center to leap out in a random direction and knock the seals' marbles away. The goal is to avoid the dolphin and get the marble-balls back to the seals' home.
