How to use

To begin, hold the bundle of sticks vertically and release them onto a flat surface to form a randomized pile. Players take turns attempting to remove a single stick without moving any other sticks; successful removal is kept by the player, while a failed attempt ends the turn. Continue play until all sticks are removed; the player with the most sticks wins. The simple turn-based rules support multiple variations and scoring methods to adjust difficulty and game duration.

Usage recommendations

Use on a level, non-slippery surface to ensure predictable pile formation and fair play. For younger children or therapeutic use, allow extra time and encourage slow, deliberate movements to support fine motor development. Store the sticks in a small bag or box to protect the wooden finish and keep components together when transporting.
