Components

• 30 Noodles
• Bowl
• Yeti

Object of the Game

Carefully remove noodles without being the one to let Yeti fall in the bowl!

Setup

Place the Bowl on a flat, level surface. Lay the Noodles across the top of the Bowl, criss-crossing in a random way.

Set Yeti gently on top of the noodles (in the center is best).

There are two rules you really have to know:

• If you touch a Noodle, then that is the one you must remove.

• You may use both hands to remove the Noodle, but you can only use one hand at a time.

Game Play

The oldest player goes first, carefully and strategically removing a Noodle by sliding, slipping, pushing, lifting, etc.! Be careful not to disturb Yeti and let him fall into the Bowl!

Rules about Noodle removal:

• If you touch a Noodle, then that is the one you must remove. No touching and testing the placement of the Noodles!

• You may use both hands to remove the Noodle, but you can only use one hand at a time.

• If you successfully remove a Noodle and Yeti does not fall to the bottom of the Bowl, the player to your left goes next, and so on.

• If Yeti falls to the bottom of the Bowl during your turn (or immediately after your turn, before the next person goes), the game is over!

Note: if Yeti shifts or ends up hanging by a Noodle, it's OK, keep playing. The game stops only when he falls completely to the bottom of the Bowl.

End of the Game

The player who last successfully removed a Noodle before the player who made Yeti fall is the winner! Celebrate Yeti-style by stomping and jumping around!
