What type of game is it? Kubb is an outdoor game of dexterity, similar to the popular Scandinavian game Mölkky. Kubb opposes 2 teams (or 2 players) and is a little bit more strategic than Mölkky.

What is the goal of the game? The ultimate goal is to knock over the King, which is at the center of the play area. But before throwing sticks at the King, you must knock over all the opponents' skittles... which are located at the other end of the play area!

How do we play? Each turn, the active team or player has 6 sticks to throw. They must first knock over the skittles in the field (those that were knocked over on previous turns and then put back in the play area), then you can try the skittles that are still on the opponents' baseline. Then only you can try to knock over the King. Of course, it will take several turns of back-and-forth before you can attack the King!

But beware! If on a turn you do not knock over all the field skittles, the opposing team will move their baseline closer to you... And if by mistake you knock over the King before you can legally do so, you lose the game!

Why you will love Kubb!

• you can play at the park, in the garden, in the sand or even on a hard surface
• you can change the size of the play area depending on the age or level of the players
• it is definitely the best game for you if you like Mölkky but would like a little more tension and strategy!
