Game description
Chariot racing was a popular sport in Roman times. Apparently there were also chasing hunts with coaches in the times of the knights. The well-known Roman chariot race will be played. 2 players stand at the front as the horses heads. 2 further players bend down and make the back of the horses. A fifth player sits on the back and holds the shoulders to the two front players. On the start signal, the chariot sets off towards the finishing line and tries not to fall apart.
