MATERIALS
- Stack of wooden disc segments topped with a rounded head piece
- Small wooden mallet
MEASUREMENTS
Tower typically stacks 4 to 5 disc segments beneath the head piece
HOW TO PLAY
1
Stack the wooden disc segments in a column and place the rounded head piece on top.
2
Hold the mallet and strike the bottom disc segment sharply and horizontally to knock it out from the stack.
3
Aim to remove each disc so the segments above drop straight down without toppling the tower.
4
Work upward through the stack, striking the next lowest disc segment on each turn.
5
If the tower tips over before all segments are cleared, that attempt ends without success.
6
Successfully removing every disc while keeping the head piece balanced on the ground completes the game.
