The Joy Of Playing A Stacking Block Game

By Catalina Nielsen


For a person that has never played a stacking block game, there is a sense of awe and wonder in this simple yet addictive past time. The object of the game is to take blocks and stack them in such a manner that you create rows. The winner is generally the one that has created the most rows or that is left after all the other players have left.

The concept involves different shaped items being placed in a way that will form rows. When a row is created, the player is awarded points. Points are still awarded for being able to place your item somewhere as long as it on the current stack being created.

Another variation of this game will involve the stacking of these in a tower type configuration. Players will then take turns removing these from the bottom of the tower and placing onto the top. The first player that causes the tower to fall will be declared the loser.

Technology has played a hand in getting this out to younger people to enjoy. There are a number of applications that have been developed that will let kids play this while on that long road trip to grandmas house. This has allowed parents to have a much more quiet trip without all of the drama that used to come with boredom.

Looking for these and finding them is not that difficult at all. The best part is that these can be purchased in a store as well as online. This allows for easier time in getting into the playing of this and does not mean an all night hunt just to get one to play.

As these have went online, this has meant that sites allowing a person to play these have sprang up as well. There are an ever growing number of these sites that allow a person the chance to play while on that long trip to see grandma.

Keeping score is easy as it will be the player that has the most points at the end of a contest will be the winner. Points are based on the amount of time that it takes you to place a block as well as the way that it is placed. If it creates a row, that is the best option as this has the highest point value.

Now that you have learned a little about these, then the sooner that you can go and begin to play on your own. It will be hard to stop as you will see this as being quite habit forming and will not want to stop at all. The best part is that kids as well as adults can all play and actually have something in common that they can both enjoy. This is why a stacking block game can be a great party item to pull out.
