Game Modes Available in Volcano Escape
Team Mode: Teams compete to answer questions and escape the island before the volcano explodes. There's only room for one team to escape on the boat so they must be fast!
Optional Family Team Mode: Select how many of a team's token must reach the boat for that team to win. The pieces represent a team's family. The entire family must escape to win. For a longer game, you can select a higher amount of pieces. For a normal game, simply select one piece.
Optional Arrows On/Off Team Mode: The arrow indicators can be customized to fit your needs for the game. There are several different layouts that you can choose from.
