Wooden Skill Game – Wobbly Block Tower with 4 Dice
This classic skill game is full of excitement and is perfect for family game nights or playing with friends.
The players’ task is to carefully remove blocks from the tower and place them on top without causing the structure to collapse.
The blocks are
made of light-coloured wood
, giving the set a natural and attractive appearance. Once assembled, they form a tall tower that becomes increasingly unstable with every move. The game requires focus, precision, and a steady hand, making each turn more exciting than the last.
How to play?
Version 1 – Classic game
First, build the tower by placing
3 blocks on each level in alternating directions
. Players then take turns removing one block from any part of the tower and placing it on top.
Each move must be made carefully to avoid disturbing the balance of the structure. The player who knocks the tower over loses the game. The winner is the last person to successfully place a block on top without making the tower collapse.
Version 2 – Game with dice
The second version adds an extra challenge. The set includes
4 dice
, and each wooden block has its own number marking.
The player rolls the dice, and the result determines
which block must be removed from the tower
. The selected block then has to be carefully pulled out and placed on top. This version is more difficult because the player cannot simply choose the easiest or safest block to remove.
