tummple!

building by dice roll

 

Growth in all directions with highest possible stacks! 54 identical wooden blocks, similar to Jenga blocks, as well as 10 yellow and 15 white plastic nuggets, called tumps, are the building components in the box for that purpose!

The stack or tower begins with two basis tiles, that are set down next to each other any way, they must touch each other along one edge. Then players take turns to roll the twelve-sided die. The result determines, if a lens ore one of the building blocks must be used, and, in case of a block also how the block must be added: standing up or lying on the broad side or lying on the narrow side, or at your discretion. The location for putting the block is decided by the active player. A white tump on a block only obstructs the place where it sits, a yellow tump, however, prohibits building on the entire block.

If you trigger a tumbling of blocks from the construct, you must take all fallen blocks that do no longer touch the basis tiles, and set them aside. Blocks that are still in contact with the basic tiles, but are slanting, stay in place, but cannot be built on.

When all tumps and building blocks are either in the construct or with players, you win with the fewest number of building components. If there is a tie, the players in the tie return their building components to the box and continue to play. Whoever causes a tumbling, is out of the game, the last one remaining is the winner. If you manage to use all blocks in the construct, all players win together.

More difficult than Jenga, and featuring a rule for a clear winner of the game; quick, easy and a good mix of dexterity and luck of the dice!
