Pick-Up Sticks

Pick-Up Sticks
22-080

An old game that is as popular now as it has ever been.  This neat little set comes in its own wooden case.  Can be played simply, however the sticks are marked for comprehensive score playing if so desired.  Comes with a full set of instructions.

Overview:  Gather the sticks in the palm of your hand and hold them vertically over a flat surface.  Release them to allow them to fall naturally.  Push them into a heap without intentionally changing their order.

Players take it in turns to remove a stick from the pile.  But be careful if they disturb another stick even slightly, they will have to leave their chosen stick in the pile and the play passes on to the next player.  Play continues until all the sticks have been removed.  The person with the most sticks or points at the end of the game is the winner.

Can be played non-competitively by placing all the removed sticks in one single pile or sorting them according to their colour combinations.
