Ancient construct platform tile or wood base.
Rules:
Each player takes turns choosing and placing one piece, starting on the platform base, to build up the construct.
Pieces are played such that all blocks conform to the 8-square tile diagram drawn on the platform base.
None of the blocks of the piece can be fully outside or inside of the 8-square tile diagram format.
The player has to play the first piece he touches. Also, one cannot rearrange or straighten the pieces already used in the construct.
As play continues, the construct's shape will look like an uneven tower or chimney.
Score is kept by the number of blocks (not pieces) played. Game ends when all 25 pieces are played or when the ancient construct has been partially or wholly knocked over.
The player with the most points who did not cause the construct to fall is declared the winner.
In the end, the structure will look like a beautiful Ancient stone construct, hence the name: "Ancient Construct"!
Ancient construct can be played alone or as a party game to be enjoyed with many players!
