This portable, indoor version of curling uses the same rules as the real sport for an exciting, fun, and competitive experience for 2 to 8 players! The object of the game is to get your stones as close to the center of the target as possible, using strategy to guard your own stones and knock your opponents stones away! The team with the most points after a game wins. Includes 47" x 11" rink mat, 2 magnetic stoppers, 8 curling stones (4 blue, 4 orange) with storage bag, and rules manual. Each stone has a built-in ball bearing, allowing it to glide smoothly across the rink toward the target! Sets up in seconds ? simply unroll the mat onto a flat surface and attach the magnetic stoppers at the ends. Divide into two teams (1 to 4 players per team) and choose a color. Teams do not need to have an equal number of players. This fun game not only improves hand-eye coordination, but also tests critical and predictive thinking skills as you strategically plan your next throw! The mat is sized perfectly for tabletop play and conveniently rolls up to fit back into the box along with the other pieces for storage or travel.
