Watch out, out of the way! One metal ball follows another! This game calls for good reactions, fast
reflexes and dexterity. Children love anything that moves, especially rolling balls.
Using the chutes and the metal balls, the players try to propel the wooden disc into the target area oppo-
site. A player receives a point for every hit entering the target area. The winner is the player who can first
make five successful hits.
Game preparations
Before the game begins, the board is placed in the middle of the table within easy reach of all the players,
and each chute is inserted into the hole at the corner of the board with the corresponding colour. The
wooden pegs are inserted in the two wooden bars and placed to the left and right of the game board.
Later on, the pegs are used to keep a tally of the winning points.
Each player chooses a colour and receives five metal balls. Then a wooden disc is placed in the centre of
the game board.
If only two children are playing, the two wooden bars are used to limit the field of play, so that only two
opposite areas of the game board are in play.
