Jenga

description Jenga Overview

Jenga is a physical skill game in which players remove wooden blocks from a stacked tower and place them on its top without causing the structure to fall. Leslie Scott created the game, which was introduced commercially in the 1980s. It is played by individuals or groups and relies on balance, hand control, and judgment. The rules are simple enough for family play but allow increasing difficulty as the tower becomes less stable.

How do you play Jenga?

Players remove one wooden block at a time from the tower and place it on the top. The goal is to keep the structure standing while making the tower increasingly unstable.

Leslie Scott created Jenga. The game was introduced commercially in the 1980s and became a widely recognized physical skill game.

Can Jenga be played by one person?

Yes, although it is commonly played by two or more people. A solo player can still practice careful block removal and tower balancing.

The tower falls when removed blocks weaken its balance or a player applies too much force. Small shifts in the wooden stack can make later moves much harder.
