2. Right and left

Right and left is a competitive and collaborative game. The two teams collaborate to create a path towards the target, while they compete to use as many as possible of the tiles assigned to them: the yellow team tries to insert as many turns to the left as possible and the red team tries to insert as many turns to the right as possible.

Required material: chequered board, tiles with footprint pictures
