Stubborn Mules

Race, roll, and strategize in Stubborn Mules, the clever family dice game from Korea’s Playte! Designed for 2–5 players ages 8 and up, with a playtime of 20 minutes, Stubborn Mules is perfect for quick, engaging fun at game night or with family.

Each player guides a mule along the track, but men of unique colors join the race and add extra twists. Roll three color dice every turn—move tokens forward, backward, or dash ahead based on the results. Smart players can choose to keep one or two dice intact for their next roll, unlocking a subtle catch-up mechanic and strategic movement.

But watch out! Crossing the finish line first doesn’t always mean victory. If the last piece remaining on the track is a man, the first to finish wins. If it’s a mule, the last mule wins instead! Judge wisely and manipulate the race to claim victory at just the right moment.

With its simple rules, unique winner determination, and lively gameplay, Stubborn Mules is ideal for families, kids, and anyone who loves a fresh twist on racing games.
