HOW TO PLAY

Start here.

YOU’LL NEEDChalk or flat markers and one small toss marker
  1. 1Draw or mark a numbered course on level ground, using single squares and a few side-by-side doubles.
  2. 2On a turn, toss the marker onto square one without touching a line. Hop through the course, skipping the marked square; use one foot in single squares and one foot in each side-by-side square.
  3. 3At the far end, turn, return, and pick up the marker while balancing before hopping over that square. A line touch, missed square, or lost balance ends the turn.
  4. 4After a successful trip, toss for the next number on your next turn. First player to complete every number wins; then add one portal, reverse square, or route fork.

REMIX THE RULES

Complete twists.

Portal pairMark two empty course squares as matching portals. Landing on the first portal requires the player to move directly to the second and continue from there on the correct foot; the tossed-marker square is still skipped. Missing the destination or touching a line ends the turn. First player to complete every number wins.
