1. Players have one bag full of small wooden, rectangular blocks of different lengths between them.
2. They each begin by randomly drawing one of the blocks from the bag and laying it infront of a starting line so that one end of the block is touching the line.
3. Now they take turns taking blocks from the bag and adding them to blocks they've already put down making a line of blocks that stretches vertically forwards.
4. When drawing blocks from the bag, they can try to judge the length of blocks with their hands by feeling them but they cannot look in the bag.
5. They must use whatever block they've drawn from the bag except every third turn.
6. Every Third Turn Rule: With every third block that a player takes from the bag they have an option of either using the block or putting it back in the bag, shaking up the bag and trying again but its a gamble ofcourse because they may then draw out a block shorter than the one they put back.
7. The player whose line of blocks reaches or crosses (in other words stretches to or over) the finishing line first wins.
8. Note: Some may try to play this game by simply putting their hand in the bag and feeling around for the longest block they can find but the problem with that is, as soon as your opponent has laid down his block he will want to put his hand back in the bag and take another and so a player really doesn't have a lot of time to spend with their hand in the bag.
