Sticky Stickz

Chasing creatures with suction cups

Players want to catch creatures on demand with the help of their Sticky Stickz; Sticky Sticks are sticks with a suction cup on both ends. The game features 54 creature tiles and one creature die each for color, number and facial expression of the creatures.

Each player is given a Sticky Stick and holds it like a pen. All creature tiles are distributed evenly on the board. One player rolls all three creature dice into the middle of the board: The number die shows how many creatures must be depicted on each tile, the color die determines the creatures’ color and the facial-expression die shows what facial expression/mood they creatures you want to catch must show.

Now all players play simultaneously and try to pick up creature tiles with their Sticky Stickz that fit the prerequisites set by the three creature dice in order to “catch” them. You can use both sides of the Sticky Stick. When all players agree that there are no remaining creature tiles with the criteria on demand, the round ends and all tiles that were collected are checked and stacked. If you made a mistake you put back the wrong tile plus one of the previously caught correct tiles onto the board. When five squares are empty you win with most creatures. For children you can play a simplified version without the facial-expression die.

Fast reactions and dexterous handling of the stick are in demand, of course also close observation and to be quick in catching the joker tiles! All this together will ensure that you have most tiles at the end and win!
