Each round, players stack pieces to build the game (or block their opponents) until no more pieces can be added. The last person to lay a tile wins the round. The first player to win 3 rounds wins the game. But be careful! You're out for the round if you can't lay a tile!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAges 7+ | 1-5 Players\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes 60 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VR Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56064659030390,"sku":"658580960148","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/0970\/9115\/files\/stakd-stack-block-win-not-for-resell-on-amazon-ebay--7092_bc243.jpg?v=1754660085"},{"product_id":"fathom-retail-edition","title":"Fathom Retail Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFathom\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a tile-laying, pattern-building game of deep-sea exploration in which you take on the role of marine biology teams competing to uncover the secrets of an uncharted, underwater ecosystem around a fictional island.
