Tabletop Game - Ricochet

Launch the chips, adjust the throwing strength with a rubber band, and score the maximum number of points. Victory is in your hands!

    Game components:
 

    • wooden game board – 1 pc. (44 x 25 cm.)

    • wooden chips – 6 pcs. (diameter 3 cm.)

How to play?

    Each player receives 3 chips. Using the tension of the rubber band, the player controls the distance of the chip's "flight" trying to hit the areas of the board with the maximum number of points. But there are also zones where points are not counted, such as the area with arrows, "underthrow," or "out."

There are three game variants:

1.      Players take turns and count points obtained after each throw. Each thrown chip is removed from the board before the next throw. The player who has scored the maximum number of points is declared the winner.

2.      Each player launches all their chips one at a time (a total of three throws). The trick in this variant of the game is that each subsequent chip can "knock out" a previously advantageous predecessor, completely changing the total score. Points are counted after three throws. The winner is the one who has the maximum total score from all three throws.

3.      This is a mix of the first and second variants, where chips are thrown alternately by players, but are not removed from the board. In this case, a new throw can radically change the situation on the board, shifting the opponent's chips from the zones with the highest point totals. The winner is determined when all chips have been launched.

    The game develops logical and strategic thinking, trains fine motor skills and reaction speed.
