Whenever a player places a tile so that the road is closed at both ends, the players whose colours are shown on parts of the closed road, place their figures on these parts. Each road part with the colour of a player in the game gets a figure of that color. A road is '''closed''' if it ends, at both ends, at a pond, a wall, a house, or a green area.

In rare cases it can happen that all tiles are played, but no player has played all their figures. In this case, the game ends when the last tile is played. In this case, the winner is the player who has the fewest figures left unplayed on the map. If players tie with the fewest, those tied rejoice in their shared victory.

=== German/French First Edition tiles === <!--T:42-->


<!--T:43-->
The initial release of the German and French versions (both by [[Hans im Glück|'''HiG''']]) contained an imbalance in the number of children, in each colour, printed on the tiles. There were 12 green, 12 yellow, 11 red and 10 blue children. In the second printing, this was corrected to 11 of each.


<!--T:44-->
Additionally, a number of tiles featured roads passing through the inner courtyards of the buildings, which were replaced in the second version with roads which stopped '''at''' the buildings. All other printings from around this time contained the correct tile images. There were also some minor artwork changes as well - green children have pointed hats. The tiles from that original printing are included below, with the tiles that replaced them.
