PLAYED FOR YOU

Stühle stapeln XXL

Ha, the blue leg fits through the red back!

We have stacked and balanced many things already, lately we stacked watering cans and other implements for the Dragon Knights, and now we again have fun with chairs. Even this is not new, the nice plastic opportunities to sit down have crossed our path already several times and in several editions, this time in an XXL edition.

The game features 24 plastic chairs in three colors, the starting player chooses a chair and puts it in the middle any way he likes; all other players must place the following chairs in a way that they do not touch the table but only chairs. The stack can be extended into any direction as long as it remains stable and does not tumble and as long as only one chair touches the table. If you cause the stack of chairs to tumble you end the round. The winner of the round is the player who was last to successfully place a chair. You can stop our give out a penalty point for tumbling the stack and play another round. In this case you win when you have the fewest number of penalty points after a pre-set number of rounds.

The interesting thing is that the chairs are different; there are some with straight legs, bent legs, bent backs, straight backs, rounded back ends, holes in the backs, round holes, square holes - which immediately makes you speculate that you could dovetail and thus anchor them. Can I push the next chair leg through a back and stabilize the stack this way? Some players that trial and error do not work, just drop the chair, it will cling somehow!

Amusing, funny, more silent than you believe, with furniture more stable than you might thing which is more slippery than you want it to be.
