Each player starts with a personal stash of chairs and, on their turn, must add one piece to the central stack. As the tower gets taller, tension builds: if the chairs tumble while you’re placing yours, you collect all the fallen pieces and keep trying to get rid of them in later rounds. The goal is straightforward – be the first to discard all your chairs – yet strategy emerges in choosing where to place the next chair and weighing risk versus reward. The game supports 1 to 99 players, making it ideal for parties, family gatherings, or solo quick sessions. Recommended for ages 5 and up, the dexterity mechanic is easy for kids while still providing enough suspense for adults who enjoy a physical challenge. A typical playtime is about 20 minutes, so you can run multiple rounds in an afternoon. Components consist of colorful plastic chairs, a sturdy metal tin, and a clear rulebook. No language is required to play, which helps multilingual groups jump right in. If you love games that demand hand‑eye coordination, balance, and a dash of luck, Chairs will deliver laughs, gasps, and inevitably a few toppled chairs along the way. ## FAQ ### How many players can join?
