## Rules questions

### Do I have to move every turn or can I stay put?

You must move your animal to a new location on your turn — place your animal on any available location (page 3).

### If I move to a spot where other players are, do I always have to give them fruits? What if I don't have enough (or any)?

If others are on the location you must give 1 fruit face‑down from your hand to each of them; if you don't have enough you give all remaining fruits but choose who receives them, and if you have none you may move there without giving fruits (page 3).

### Can I both use a location's action and buy its fabled juice on the same turn?

No — when moving to a location you may either use the action printed on the card or, instead of using the action, buy the fabled juice by paying the required fruits (page 3).

### Is there a limit to how many fruit cards I can hold in my hand?

There is no hand limit; you may collect any number of fruits in your hand (page 3).

### When does the game end — does it stop as soon as someone reaches the goal?

When the first player reaches the required number of fabled juices you finish the current round so all players have the same number of turns (the player to the right of the start player receives the last turn); the most fabled juices wins, with ties broken by remaining fruits in hand (page 4).
