port with | port with <s>a loose flat cover which has a hole in it</s> <br> | ||
a cover with a hole in the center of it. He places <br> | |||
the cover upside down then places four different <br> | |||
colored plastic figures up against the rim, 90° apart. <br> | |||
There is a plastic hammer. Players in turn strike the pot <br> | |||
three times with the hammer. They try to knock it so <br> | |||
that the in color <s>figure</s> figure goes thru the center hole and the <br> | |||
other players off the edge. There should be a path board <br> | |||
with 15 spaces for each of the four colors. The movement along <br> | |||
the paths is determined as follows : - The player can only <br> | |||
move by putting his own figure thru the center hole. <br> | |||
He moves 5 spaces minus one for each opponent's piece <br> | |||
not knocked over the rim. Also if an opponent's piece is <br> | |||
knocked thru the center hole that opponent moves one <br> | |||
space. Also if the player knocks the pot off the stand <br> | |||
altogether he goes back to the start of the path. <br> | |||
(Not bad as an action gavne.) | |||
