Hand-to-Hand Wombat is Major Fun!
Casual Game Insider|Spring 2023
The Concept - No one knows why wombats enjoy architecture. A desire to build towers is buried deep in their bones. But there are exceptions: wicked wombats, born to make trouble.
Hand-to-Hand Wombat is Major Fun!

Hand-to-Hand Wombat pits a team of builders against fuzzy little secret sowers of chaos. The builders must stack pieces to create three towers while the bad wombat works to sabotage them without getting caught. This might seem easy or impossible depending on what team you're on, until you discover the twist: everyone plays with their eyes closed!

The Components

The entire game takes place within the confines of the box lid. In it, you’ll place all the pieces needed to complete three towers. Each tower has a spindle and six nubby square pieces. The pieces have holes in the center, allowing them to slide onto the spindles. The piece with six nubs along its edges is the base of the tower. The five-nub piece stacks nicely above it, and so on.

To play, deal out wombat cards to see who is on the builder team and who is the wicked wombat. Do not share your identity with anyone else! Place all the tower pieces and the spindles in the box lid and you’re ready to go.
