Three ways to move forward anyway:

In brief

The playing board is a fitted three dimensional structure that one might expect to find on a farm. Players use Goat playing pieces and collect tin cans from the Goat Pen to score. Spin and move; players must move full amount shown on spinner. Draw a card and follow instructions if move ends on a colored space. If move ends on a Star space, the players places their Goat on top of the nearest object (haystack, stone wall, etc.) and collects a can from the pen. Players may move backwards or forwards but cannot change direction in the middle of a move. Goats that collected a can by landing on a Star space and are now on top of something, must spin greater than one to jump down (costs one movement) or stay until they do. You must maneuver your way onto the roof of the barn to end the game. Player with the most cans wins.
