Bounce It!^*

Bounce It! is a fast dexterity game by Christoph Cantzler in which push-your-luck meets push-your-skill. You bounce balls towards a hole and after every hit decide whether to stop or go for a higher chip. For families and party groups aged 8+, a game takes 10 to 20 minutes.

How it plays

1. On your turn you have a handful of balls to bounce towards a hole.
2. When a ball goes in, you can stop and take the current chip – or keep playing for a higher one.
3. If your last ball misses, you get nothing, and the next player can try to win the chip you left behind.

The first to reach 42 points wins.

What makes it special?

Bounce It! combines skill with the classic stop-or-continue tension. Because a chip you leave behind passes to the next player, every gamble can hand your opponents a chance. The rules take a minute to explain.

Who is it for?

Families, kids aged 8+ and mixed groups looking for something light with action and laughs – a good opener or closer for a game night.
