Stack logs and embers on a tiny campfire with tweezers and try not to burn the camp down.
Tinderblox squeezes a whole campfire into a mint tin. Everyone takes turns drawing a card that tells you to add a log, an ember or a mix of both to the growing fire, in specific orientations. The catch: you place everything with tweezers. Drop a piece and you count as a fire hazard, so you are out of the game. The last careful pyromaniac standing wins. It is a pocket-sized dexterity game with steady hands and nervous laughter, playable in about fifteen minutes with two to six people. There are Day, Night and Sunset versions, with the Night edition adding harder cards. Perfect for a camping trip, since it fits anywhere.
Who it's for
You want a tiny dexterity game to take camping, to a bar or on a trip, something like a pocket Jenga with tweezers.
Not for you ifβ¦
You dislike being eliminated early or have shaky hands on a bad day. Dropping a piece ends your game.
Vibe's take
Tense and giggly. Every placement is a small act of bravery with shaking fingers, and the whole table holds its breath as the fire grows.
