Top That!
Race to stack five wooden pieces so the right ones show and the grey ones hide.
Who it's for
You want a short, loud puzzle race where kids from about six and adults compete evenly. Best with four players.
Not for you if…
You dislike time pressure or dexterity. A shaky hand or slow spatial thinking will cost you cards, and sore losers will notice.
Vibe's take
Frantic and giggly, with fingers hovering over a tower that wants to fall. Each round is over in seconds, then everyone resets and goes again.
About this game
A stacking race with five wooden bits: a black hat, an orange tube, a red goblet, a green coin and a white rabbit. A challenge card is flipped and everybody builds the same tower at once. Pieces shown in color on the card must stay visible in your stack, pieces shown in grey must be hidden somewhere inside it. The first to finish claims the card, and the first to claim enough cards wins. Everyone has identical pieces, so it is pure puzzling under pressure, with toppled stacks and shouts of 'wait, where does the goblet go?' Rounds last seconds, the whole game about fifteen minutes, and kids can hold their own against adults.
