Burg Klettermax

Stack and snip knights

 

The King has aggravated his knights, he is much too greedy and wants to keep all the lovely treasures for himself; so the knights have banded together and want to get their treasures back. The help each other to climb the castle walls and when they reach the crown of the wall they jump into the castle.

The castle is set up using the bottom of the box and inner walls and treasure tiles are shuffled. You place three treasure tiles face down into each chamber of the castle and turn up the top one of each stack. Now you choose a tower stacking tile and a treasure chamber he wants to plunder. You put your stacking tile next to the outer wall of this chamber.

Then you roll - for each shield you take a knight of this color and stack him on your own tile; if such a knight is already stacked on your tile you must give the knight to the next player in turn who then can stack him or must hand him on again. When you roll a jester that means you can only stack a knight of the other die’s color. When you roll two jesters you can choose a knight and stack him. When you have stacked five different knights you may snip the top knight into the castle and take the top treasure card from the chamber where the knight ends up. The remaining knights are put back in stock and you relocate your stacking tile. When you have collected five treasure tiles the game ends and all count the treasures on their tiles; you win with most treasures!

What a lovely idea for a game! Stacking and snipping works very well, with some practice you can hit exactly the tile of your choice! Good training for motor skills and lots of fun!
