Ages 5 & up. This game of chance and skill will bring hours of enjoyment to any after school program.The object: try not to lose your marbles. A long-time favorite, Ker-Plunk takes a steady hand, as you skillfully remove the sticks from the marble-filled tube. A clear plastic tube is filled with marbles, which are supported by crisscrossing sticks inserted through the tube. Each player takes a turn removing a stick from the tube, trying to dislodge as few marbles as possible. As the game progresses and fewer sticks remain, it gets harder to keep the marbles from going ker-plunk! Play continues until all the marbles have fallen. The player with the fewest marbles in his compartment wins! For two to four players. –Alison Golder

The new one is so little, you have to hold it with one hand while you pull the straw, making it difficult to move carefully. I think this is the same type…
Expecting fun, got none! I was so looking forward to playing this with my kids. I have a 9 and 3yr. old, big age difference and hard to find games that we can all play, so I thought Kerplunk would be perfect. The older one would have fun and it was something the little one could play without having to stop and have mommy read the card to tell her what to do next. Boy was I wrong. First of all while trying to put the thing together, where the top and bottom were suppose to fit perfectly together, they didn’t, the sticks…
