Pick Up Sticks

Long, thin sticks lie in a scattered heap on the table and players take turns using a designated tool stick to lift individual sticks without disturbing the others. Each successfully retrieved stick earns points based on its color; a turn ends when any unintended stick moves. Play continues to accumulate points and determine a winner.

    great if you like arguing over if a stick moved or not.
