Experience the wild ups and downs of hurricane season with the fast-paced board game, Hunker Down. Players make their way around the twister-shape board while dealing with unexpected events like tornadoes, gas lineups and food shortages.

The first player to make it to the end of the board and surive a hurricane season wins. Hunker Down is a fun family game that is also a neat way to learn about the dangers people face during a hurricane. The Hunker Down board game can be played by two to six players. It comes packaged in a sand bag and includes a game board, six game tokens, a Dopler Die, and two sets of game cards. For more info head to www.hunkerdowngame.com.
