Champagne: The Game (1996)

About this game

Odd Jenga variant with lots of plastic champagne glasses stacked up in the decadent fashion, only to be removed without toppling the pile. Different versions of the game are available - that is: a different number of glasses in the box. To set up the game: make a triangle of glasses and stack smaller triangles on to that. Put the single red glass on top. Going clockwise, players try to take one glass from the tower. If successful, play continues. If the red glass falls, the player has lost the game. All other players win.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 4 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
