Mia and Me. Gemeinsam für Centopia. Boardgame review. (part 1)

Do you by any chance know the cartoon serie Mia and Me ?
I watched it the first time in Italy last year. And it has been on air in Germany too. I remember, when I was a child too, there were a few series half movie half cartoon. And Mia is one of this kind. There is this girl in a real life scenery who can travel to some fantasy world and be an elf. By becoming elf and traveling to this magic world, she is in a cartoon.
The elves have different tasks in each episode. They usually are looking for something and rescue it. Or they learn some magic things about the place they live in. There are unicorns and dragons, and a bunch of other creatures. Mia is the only elf who is able to talk and understand what these creatures say.
So Princess had birthday and she wished for some Mia stuff. I wasn't sure what to get her and if the things I found were worth the money they cost. Then I saw this boardgame and decided to pick it.


I already had it in my list since Christmas. But I didn't buy it yet because it says it's for kids age 5+ and Princess just turned 4.
But. It was discounted. And Princess did ask for some Mia products.
And I am a boardgame collector. And player. Well, not that I play that much anymore actually. But yeah.
So we played the game Mia and me. Gemeinsam für Centopia. Wich means Mia and me. Together for Centopia.
The game is simple. All players try to save Centopia from the bad guy.
Here is the link to the game on Amazon if you want to buy it or give a closer look or read reviews from other people. I tried to take as many pictures I could, to explain you the game and maybe see the illustrations.

There are 6 illustrations in total. 4 are part of the board, one is the figure you move around and one is on the die.
They reflect the typical illustrative art of the serie that you find on all branded products but it is not 3D as the TV serie is.
The one on the die represents the antagonist, the figure to move is the group of main characters from the serie, the elves, 3 out of 4 illustrations on the board are unicorns and creatures of Centopia, one board illustration is made of some papirus or similar items.
There are also dice numbers up to 4 on the board.
