That means that the game rubberbands once you're far enough ahead, you end up just placing sticks from the other people. When you place a stick, you first roll a die. We were playing the intermediate version of the game. Even trying to create the most ridiculous tower we could, we couldn't knock off more than one piece, once.īut there was also something weird about suspend. The sticks fit into the notches very securely. That's even considering the fact that my manual dexterity operates at a 6 year old level (so I shouldn't even be allowed to play this game).

You can even place a stick somewhere and let it slide into an already occupied notch. The game's rules are vague enough that you can actually place sticks pretty much anywhere, as long as it isn't in an already occupied notch.
