Woolfy

Players reenact the tale of the three little pigs as they cooperate to build a brick house and avoid the wolf. Play uses colored dice for each pig to move 1–3 spaces, move the wolf, or run to one of three houses. The wolf moves clockwise in sweeping jumps that capture pigs it lands on or passes; captured pigs go into a cook pot. Teammates can attempt rescues by landing on cauldron spaces and succeeding on a die roll. The brick house starts unbuilt and requires four pieces placed when a pig lands on its space. Once the brick house is complete, pigs can shelter inside; all three pigs in the brick house win, while the wolf wins if it captures all three.
