Overview
What ABG knows about this game
from Translation: A long way away there are a few palm trees, an a bit more sunshine than here, a wild band of monkeys and many bananas. We are right in the middle of of a typical banana paradise. Nothing disrupts the peace. Nothing except the wild shrieks from atop a monkey rock. The monkeys have a competition for the title Top Banana today. Let us see what happens… With orderly quick movements monkeys leap from rock to rock, first up, then down. Each has just one goal, to sit higher than the others at the end of the round, so he can get the best view. Unfortunately only the one who can do this the best can claim the title Top Banana.
