Mini Kubb

About this game

A mini table top version of Kubb made in eco-friendly wood and great for indoors. Kubb is pronounced koob and is often referred to as Viking Chess or simply the Viking Game. Kubb is a game where the object is to knock over wooden blocks (called kubbs) by throwing wooden sticks at them. Once all of the kubbs on the opposite team's baseline are knocked over then an attempt may be made to knock over the king in the center for the win. Knocking over the king before that is an automatic loss.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 12.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 3 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
