pile up rules
Instructions
Players: 2-5
Goal: Collect the most points!
Materials: A stable surface (you can add some challenge by using a slope!).
Everything in your pockets that you are willing to risk.
Setup: Players place all donated pocket items to a central “pot” and sit in a circle.
Rules:
1. The player who donates the most items goes first;(or the player with the “best” item in a tie)
-The starting player selects an item from the “pot” and places it on the playing surface.
-This is setting the “foundation” piece for the pile. The starting players turn is over.
2. Turns continue in a clockwise fashion, players select an item from the “pot” and add it to the pile.
-When the players hands leave the item, their turn ends;
3. Play continues until any item other than the “foundation” touches the playing surface.
-At this point the pile has “fallen” and the round ends.
-The previous player collects all items used in the pile and claim them as points.
-The claimed items are then removed from play.
4. Player who ended the round then places a new “foundation” to start the next round.
5. The game ends when there are no remaining items in the pot.
-Player who have got the most points wins.
-If there is a tie then the tied players share victory.
