HOW TO PLAY
1

Scatter all five stones on a flat surface to start the first stage.

2

Toss one stone up, quickly pick up one stone from the ground, and catch the tossed stone before it lands, repeating until all five have been collected one at a time.

3

Progress to the next stage by picking up two stones at once per toss, then three-and-one, then all four at once.

4

If you fail to catch the tossed stone or fumble a pickup, your turn ends and passes to the next player.

5

The final stage involves tossing all five stones up and catching as many as possible on the back of your hand; whoever advances furthest through the stages wins.
