Gameplay[]
Two to five players are required to play the game. Each player is dealt six Structure cards to be arranged in a line to form a "castle", and two Special Power cards which must be faced away from the other players.
The objective of the game is to discard all Structure cards and knock down the King Pig with a flick of the dice. In order to do so, each player must throw the dice to try to "knock out" the structure one by one in order, beginning with the card that is closest to him/her. For this, the player must roll a bird that matches with the first card on either dice. If both birds on the dice match with the first two birds in his/her castle, the player can remove both cards at once. To knock out the x2 card, one must roll any two matching birds.
Throwing the Wild side (all five birds on one sticker) of either dice allows the player to knock out whatever the first card, he/she has regardless of the other dice, including the x2 card, as it indicates that "any bird" can be knocked out. If the player doesn't produce the bird needed, he/she may take another Special Power card from the pile. Each player can only have three cards at a time. To take a fourth one, the player has to discard one card in his/her hand.
Besides rolling the dice, a player can play one Special Power card at a turn, whether the dice roll was successful or not.
- +1: forces the opponent to add another card at the first position of his/her Structure. Playable on player's turn only
- Pig: allows the player to give a x2 card to an opponent. Playable on player's turn only
- Re-roll: allows the player to re-roll on his/her turn, or forces opponent to re-roll on their turn. Playable at any time
- BOOM!: allows the player to knock out any (not necessarily the first) of his/her Structure cards instantly. Playable on player's turn only
- No launch: forces the opponent to lose their turn. Playable at any time
Once his/her whole structure is knocked out, the player reaches the end-game, in which he/she attempts to knock down the standing King Pig with a flick of the dice. If successful, the player wins the game; if not, the player has to wait till his/her next turn.
