How to Play:
Fish Stix is a visual strategy game. To start, players
place 1 fish stick in the center of a table where all
players can reach it. Give 3 sticks, 1 scoreboard, and
6 fish tokens to each player. Players take turns
matching fish by color and direction. For every fish
matched, a player moves her fish tokens that number
of spaces on her scoreboard. The first player to move
all tokens to 10 wins!
Why we love this game:
Though the game says Ages 6-12, this game can be
played by adults and younger children too. We’ve
watched a 14-year-old get clobbered by an 8-year old and we’ve
played with families where preschoolers team up with parents.
