Whodunnit/Home/Willy/Candyland/Game Start
Willy quickly takes the lead after his token crosses the the Rainbow Bridge shortcut on his first turn. Meanwhile, you and Ana steadily plod along the path, jumping and re-jumping each other. Ana looks a little worried, but you know better on what usually happens when you least expect it.
Just as you predicted, Willy suddenly drew the 'Candy Cane' card, and was instantly sent back to last place behind the two of you. Ana then drew the 'Peanut Brittle' card, and was propelled into the lead. You manage to take grab the shortcut at Gumdrop Pass, although you are still a ways back from the leader.
A few more turns pass, and then it happens. 'Ice Cream' card. The best draw there is. Just like that you are in first place, Ana a little ways behind you. Willy is way in the back now, still maneuvering the long way around the Gumdrops.
A few more turns and you are within striking distance of the finish line. You glance at Willy as you draw the next card. If all goes well, this might be the end. Willy doesn't look worried in the slightest however. You take the card in your hand and flip it over... 'Gingerbread.' Aww. Just like that you are put into last place, behind Willy. Next turn, Willy draws 'Gumdrop' sending him back a few squares ahead of you.
Ana now leads by a huge margin. She marches onward to where you had just been, while smiling the whole time. She reaches the yellow spot, just one square away from winning the game. However, her next card is the 'Lollipop' card. She is a little disappointed as she's sent back, but she is still in the lead. However, the two of us are right behind, quickly catching up with a pair of double jumps.
It's anyone's game as the three of you continue jumping each other as you all approach the finish line. Suddenly the last card is drawn, and the pile is re-shuffled. Just like that, all the special cards are now back in play, ready to send someone back to the start. You are the first victim, drawing 'Gumdrop' while Ana draws 'Candy Cane' one turn later.
Now Willy is close to the finish line. You and Ana nervously exchange glances as Willy gets closer and closer to winning. Until he suddenly draws 'Lollipop.' The two of you let out a sigh of relief. Willy was still in the lead, but at least now you had a little time to catch up.
Play continued, Willy once again advancing toward the end, until he drew a blue card that put him directly on the Cotton Candy trap. You and Ana give silent cheers to each other. Now, Willy wouldn't be able to move until he drew another blue card.
The two of you steadily advance along the game board, quickly closing the distance between you and Willy. As for Willy, that trap had him stuck good. Several turns went by as he drew every color but the one he needed to free himself. You are having lots of fun, and Ana seems to be having a good time as well.
You get sent back with 'Gingerbread,' but immediately draw the 'Ice Cream' card the next turn. Ana gets close the the finish line again, but then draws the 'Peanut Brittle' card, putting her in last place. And poor Willy is still stuck in Cotton Candy.
Then it happened. Willy suddenly drew a double blue card. Not only was he freed from the trap, but... Jump! Jump!... just like that, he was at the finish line. The two of you are shocked. Willy had won! Even though he had been stuck for so long, he had drawn the very card he needed to win the game.
Willy makes a big show as he stands up. "Well now, I hope the two of you haven't forgotten our deal." He grins evilly again. You and Ana look at each other and gulp. The one person you didn't want to win. "Remember, you gotta do anything I say for the rest of the day."
"What are you gonna make us do?" Ana nervously asks. Willy is definitely enjoying this. He grins again, and makes another big show of pretending to think. "Now what shall I make you do... Hmm..." He's not fooling anyone. You can see that he already knows what he's going to do, but he's enjoying your worried expressions as you anxiously wait his first command.
"Let's see now... Your first order is..."
