Hello! This is a super simple “board game”.
Get Started
This game requires 2 simple things. Something stackable (called Stones) and a spot away from prying eyes.
Recommended Stones
- Flat Rocks
- Coins
- Dice
- Legos
- Chips
Players: 2-6
Untested with more than 6.
2-4 Min Game
Rules
1: Players decide how many “Stones” they will use for the game.
6-8 is good for a quick game.
9-11 for a medium game
12+ for a longer game
2: Players then make and hide any number of Towers with their Stones.
Make sure to hide the Towers from other players!
3.1: Players take turns guessing the size of at least one of another players Towers.
- You can only pick one player at a time when guessing.
- Loser of the last game goes first. (Otherwise oldest goes first.) 3.2: If the player guesses a Tower size that their target doesn’t have they lose a Stone from one of their Towers. 3.3: If the player guesses a Tower size that their target has, then the target loses a Stone.
4: When a player loses a Stone they may pick from which Tower it is removed from.
5: When a player no-longer has any Towers they lose, and can no-longer guess.
6: The winner is the last player with a Tower standing.
Example Play
For this example we will be picking 3 people named Bernard (B), Noel (N), and Teak (T) and 6 Stones.
- Bernard has 3 towers with sizes: 1,2,3
- Noel has 2 towers: 3,3
- Teak has 4 towers: 1,1,1,1,2
Starting with Bernard. They will pick Noel and say 2. Being Wrong B will lose 1 Stone and pick the 1 Tower (removing from the game).
Noel will pick Teak saying 1. N being Correct will make T lose 1 Stone, which they will remove a 1 Tower.
T picks B with 3. B removes from 3 (making a tower of 2). B now has Towers of 2,2.
B picks N with 3. N remove from 3. (N: 2,3)
As of B’s Last turn the group looks like:
B: 2,2
N: 2,3
T: 1,1,1,2
N→T: 1. T ⇒ 1,1,2
T→N: 1. T ⇒ 1,2
B→N: 3. N ⇒ 1,3
N→T: 1. T ⇒ 2
T→B: 2. B ⇒ 1,2
B→T: 1. B ⇒ 2
N→B: 1. N ⇒ 3
T→N: 2. T ⇒ 1
B→T: 1. Teak Out
N→B: 2. B ⇒ 1
B→N: 3. N ⇒ 2
N→B: 1. Bernard Out
Noel Wins!
