Marble Ball Board Game

Contents: 16cm Tall after installation. Round tube (a top, a bottom and a middle), tray, 30sticks, marbles

Object: To remove one stick at a time from the tube allowing the fewest marbles to fall, and trying not to cause a “Landslide”.

Let’s Play:

1. Each player selects to be a player 1-4 who corresponds with the numbered section on the tray.

2. The youngest player goes first, play then passes to the left.

3.First player turns the tube so it rotates on the tray and the small opening at the bottom of the tube faces that player’s number. Player then chooses a stick of any  color and carefully pulls it out, trying not to let the marbles fall. If you touch any stick you must pull that one. Any marbles that drop into a player’s compartment are his/hers. Next player to the left repeats the steps above.

4. After all marbles have fallen players tally their marbles. Player with the least number of marbles is the winner.

Setting Up:

1.Assemble the 3 part tube by snapping the small middle piece between the tube top and bottom Then take the tube and place the bottom (bottom has small opening) into the tray so that it rotates.

2.Insert all the sticks into the holes in the middle section until they go through a hole on the other side. When all the sticks are in place they form a crisscross pattern.

 3. Put all the marbles in through the top hole. They should rest on the crisscrossed sticks. If any fall through to the base simply put them in through the top hole again.
