Families and dexterity game fans who want a physical, laugh-out-loud flicking duel with real sabotage.

About this game

Coconuts turns a Chinese mythology character into the excuse for the most satisfying flick in your board game shelf: launch tiny coconuts off a spring-loaded monkey and try to land them in cups. Land in your own cup and you get to stack it toward a pyramid; land in someone else's and you get to swipe it straight off their board and onto yours. Monkey King Magic cards throw in blind shots, awkward angles and other petty sabotage right when you have found your rhythm. First to stack a full six-cup pyramid wins, and the whole table ends up laughing at every wild miss. Simple to learn, weirdly hard to put down.
