PLAYED FOR YOU

Chop Chop

Pineapple on grapes for your plate!

A Fruit Festival is held in the village of Ttungji-guri, that's what the rules tell us, and in a competition you need to fish fruit out of the bowl using chop sticks.

The bowl is simulated by the box bottom and the game features five different kinds of fruits, two pieces of each kind. The chop sticks come with an adjustable handling assistance disc.

Fruits are placed in the bowl and task cards are distributed evenly to all players. Then all turn up their top task card at the same time and try to take out the necessary fruits from the bowl. When you have placed the correct fruit you set aside the card. If you did not manage to get the correct fruits or if none were left, you put your card beneath your stack, but do not give the fruits back yet. If you fish out a wrong fruit you must take a card that you did already set aside and put it back underneath your stack for a penalty. Chop Chop symbols on your task cards represent a joker, you can put any kind of fruit on it. If you are first to complete all your cards and set them aside, you win.

A fast game, a hectic game, a witty game, the fruits are big, but not really handy after all, and of course you will push fruits out of other people's chop sticks, while still in the bowl. This is is quite good fun to snatch the pineapple away from your neighbor and put it on your own Chop Chop symbol. By the way, eating at Chinese restaurants with chop sticks will be easier from now on and if you want to play the expert version you play without the assistant disc. We have found the fun from the "Fun & Brain" motto, and for brain we simply think of the motor skill training!
