Wooden Micado - Wooden Box - Sliding Lid - 19 cm

Chopsticks or chopsticks are the elements used in the ancient game in question. It is a game of skill that is based on the ability to control the movement of the hand and the coordination between the eye and the hand; therefore, it helps the development of motor skills.

It is played with a set of rods with bands painted in different colors; say a bundle of rods.

The chopsticks are of common colors: red, green, yellow and blue, and of all the chopsticks, only one of them is black, or in some cases white. The black (or white) stick is unique and important in the game. The other colored toothpicks are of various quantities, and have different scoring values depending on their color, with the single toothpick being the most valuable.

Two, three or four players can participate, and the game wins whoever accumulates the most points, or whoever reaches a certain number of points./p>

The game begins with a player taking the bundle of sticks in his hand or hands, and allowing the tips to touch the hard, horizontal, smooth and flat surface where he is going to play. Next, the set of chopsticks is released and they are allowed to fall randomly. After all movement has finished, the next thing is to collect piece by piece like this, all the possible ones, this without allowing any movement of one or more of the sticks other than the one intended to be collected; a single attempt for each player.

Only the movement of the toothpick to be picked up is allowed; if one or more of the chopsticks is moved, intentionally or unintentionally, by another chopstick, or by the player's hand, or if any inadvertent movement on the chopsticks by the player is detected, their turn will end and the next participant will attempt to pick up chopsticks.

In a variation of the game, the black (or white) chopstick can be used as an auxiliary tool to rescue other chopsticks./p>
