How to Play Trouble: Pop-O-Matic, Movement, Bumping & Finish
Trouble A5064 is a 2–4 player race game using four pegs per player and a Pop-O-Matic die roller.
Choose a color
Each player takes the four pegs of one color and uses the matching area of the board.
Pop the die
Press the Pop-O-Matic bubble to roll. Use the result according to the A5064 movement rules and any printed board effects.
Move around the track
Your pegs travel around the board toward your own Finish zone.
Bumping
If an opponent lands on the same track space as one of your pegs, that peg is sent back toward its starting area; the official product description frames this as being sent back to the beginning.
Winning
The first player to get all four pegs into the Finish zone wins.
Edition note
Trouble has multiple editions. A5064 includes special board effects and a specific rule for rolling 1, so do not mix instructions from a different version.
