Tinderblox

An Adventure and Action / Dexterity game for 2–6 players, of 3–15 min and light on rules. It plays with player elimination and stacking and balancing. Recommended from age 6. The BoardGameGeek community likes it best with 3 players.

The fun mint-tin sized dexterity game that gamers and non-gamers will love! Tinderblox sets players in a campfire setting, where each player will attempt to grow the fire. But watch out! Place the blocks badly and you risk burning down the camp! Each turn, players draw a card from the campfire deck which instructs them to place a log, an ember, or any combination of them in various orientations on top of the campfire. Players use tweezers to "play with fire" and if you drop anything, you're considered a fire hazard and you're removed from the game. The player who is the most careful with fire wins! Differences between Tinderblox Day, Night and Sunset: Tinderblox Day is the original game. Tinderblox Night is a limited edition version which includes more challenging cards. Tinderblox Sunset includes the Marshmallow mini-expansion (otherwise sold separately) and is made from FSC-compliant materials.
