The Viga acorn – push out a block, hold your breath… will the acorn stay up?

This wooden Falling Acorn skill game is simple and engaging: players take turns pushing blocks out of the wall, taking care not to knock off the acorn at the top. The blocks are moved with special wooden sticks, so precision and focus are needed. The blocks form a stable wall on a wooden base, and the colourful pieces let you rebuild it again and again. The game is for 2 players, and the simple rules mean you can start playing right away. Made of beech wood. From 3 years.
