KIPP X (2012)

About this game

Will the game board tip down or not? That's the question players face each turn in KIPP X, a captivating and challenging balance game that's yet easy to play. Just place a wooden block on the cross-seesaw and that's it – if it were not for the tipping. To win KIPP X, you must be the first to get rid of all your blocks. To do this, you carefully position them one at a time on one of the lifted-up halves of the cross-seesaw. At some point, however, the weight becomes too much and the cross-seesaw tips down. If this happens, you must take any block(s) that fall off. Thus, you can't be too bold when placing blocks on the upraised planks – but maybe you can place just one more block... Reimplements Kippit

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• 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 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
