Set the stack up and take turns removing one piece at a time, placing it ontop of the tower without toppling it over. As the tower grows higher and shifts its weight to one side, some blocks become looser and easier to remove. Try finding one of the loose blocks, but using one hand only. The stack starts with 18 stories. A real pro can build a tower 36 stories high - or more! For 1 or more players. Show your steady hands and elementary structural knowledge in a battle against gravity when you play Jenga, a game of luck and precision. First, assemble the 54 rectangular, hardwood blocks--smooth and shaped just right for stacking--into a three-piece-wide, 18-story tower. Then take turns removing the three-inch blocks one at time, using caution to keep the structure intact while stacking the removed pieces back on the top of the tower. As the tower rises, its base begins to teeter--one wrong move and it collapses in a heap! Game over. Jenga allows adults to play architect and children to perfect their stacking skills and hand-eye coordination. There is no limit on the number of participants--it can even be played solo. But beware: Jenga can be addictive. The instructions declare a 36-story structure to be the mark of a real pro.
