Object of the Game

Pie your opponent with the cannon! Your opponent tries to block with the hand.


Setup

  1. Prepare to assemble the game on a steady, flat surface.

  2. Snap the cannon into its holder.

  3. Attach the cannon holder anywhere in the middle of the numbered track by hooking one of its sides onto the edge of the track, then snapping on the other side. Slide the holder into place on any of the track sections.

  4. Attach the wrench-shaped connecting stick to the numbered track. They fit like puzzle pieces.

  5. Attach the base with buttons to the cylindrical piece of the connecting stick.

  6. Stick the mask into the slot on the base, and attach the chin rest to hold it in place.

  7. Attach the blocking hand to the base.





Game Play

Each player spins. Whoever spins the highest number goes first!

On your turn:

  1. Pick an opponent to look through the mask and face the cannon.

  2. To load the whipped cream from home:



    First pull back the handle on the cannon until you see the red portion. Release the handle.

    Then slide open the top door. Use this opening to fill the cannon, and then close the door.

    Note: If you leave the door open, you will not be able to fire the cannon.

  3. Spin the spinner! The number you land on determines where along the track you must move the cannon. The color determines how you must angle the cannon.



  4. Now aim at your opponent by moving the cannon up or down however you want!

  5. Your opponent prepares to block by hitting the buttons to move the hand from side to side. They can move the hand at any time, as many times as they want!

  6. When you're ready, push the pie button on the cannon to launch the whipped cream at your opponent!



Scoring

  • If you pie your opponent, you score 1 point.
  • If you miss, your opponent scores 1 point.
  • If your opponent completely blocks the whipped cream, they score 2 points.
  • If it's a partial hit (i.e., half of the whipped cream is blocked but the other half hits your opponent), you both score 1 point.

Now the player behind the mask gets a turn with the cannon!


End of the Game

The first player to reach 5 points wins!

Putting the Game Away

  1. Carefully take apart the unit.

  2. Thoroughly clean all components with water. To clean inside the cannon, first pull off the sliding piece that covers the top cannon door.

    Then, pull back the cannon handle, submerge the cannon in warm water, and press the pie button. Repeat as needed.

  3. Make sure components are clean and dry before putting them back in the box.
