Giant Pick up Sticks
The object of the game is to pick up the most sticks and collect the most points. To begin the game, a bundle of sticks are somewhat randomly distributed so that they end up in a tangled pile. The more tangled the sticks are, the more challenging the game is. Since each player attempts to remove a single stick, without moving any other sticks. Each colour stick you pickup gives you points. In some versions of the game, players use a tool to move the stick away from the pile. This “tool” may be one of the sticks, held aside before the game begins.
