The crazy blocks make construction no easy task. One by one, build the wall higher but don't be the one who makes it all come tumbling down! A game of skill for 2 to 5 master builders, 7 years and up, about 20 minutes. The game contents 25 wooden pieces. The rules: Wobbly Wall 2 to 5 players, 7 years and up Contents 25 wooden blocks 1 storage bag 1 rules sheet Game idea Players must build a wall, adding blocks one at a time without making the wall fall. The first player to get rid of all of his pieces wins! Game Preparation: Place all blocks at the center of the table. Each player will then take turns choosing one block until all blocks are taken. All players must have the same number of pieces. If there is a block is left over, it will be used as the starting piece. Game Play: The first player places one of his blocks next to the starting piece (if there is one). All pieces must be played on their edge lined up in the same direction (see figure 1). The next player will do the same, etc., until there is a bottom row of 4 blocks. At that point, players will have to start building a new row on top of the bottom one (see figure 2). When a player touches one of his blocks, he has to play it. A player canšt touch or move blocks that have already been played as part of the wall. If a player moves pieces of the wall when placing a block without causing any to fall, the pieces are not returned to their original position. If a player causes one or several blocks to fall during his turn, he will have to pick them up and add them to his reserve of pieces. Play then passes to the next player. 2 player variant: After a player causes blocks to fall, the other player in their turn can either play one of his pieces on the wall or add a block to the bottom row as long as it is not his last piece. The bottom row can never be more than 5 pieces long.
