Tools: The game includes a set of rectangular wooden pieces (usually 54 pieces) used to build the tower. Each wooden piece is the same size and shape.
Construction: Players begin building the tower by arranging wooden pieces perpendicularly. Each layer of pieces is placed perpendicular to the previous layer, forming an ever-increasing tower.
Rules of the game:
Turn: On each turn, a player must remove one wooden piece from anywhere in the tower (except the top layer containing the removed pieces). Any hand may be used, but the piece must be removed slowly and carefully.
Re-stacking: After drawing a piece, the player places it at the top of the tower, so that the new layer is parallel to the other layers.
Balance: The tower must remain stable throughout the game. If pieces fall while dragging or placing any, the player who caused the collapse loses.
Arbitration:
If a player's move causes the tower to collapse, that player is considered the loser, and the game ends.
Termination:
The game ends when the tower collapses. A new game can be started with the same or new groups of players.
Benefits of the game:
Improves Motor Skills: The game promotes hand-eye coordination and improves fine motor skills.
Enhances concentration: The game requires great concentration to ensure that the tower does not collapse while dragging or placing pieces.
Encourages social interaction: The game is an excellent choice for social gatherings and provides an opportunity to have fun and interact with friends and family.
Additional tips:
Calm and careful: Try to be calm and focused while pulling pieces to avoid the tower collapsing.
Balance: Make sure the removed pieces are level when placing them on top of the tower to ensure the stability of the structure.
Estimation: Try to estimate the best places to pull pieces, as some pieces may be more stable than others.
