Tactic - Classic chess

Mölkky is a throwing game that originated in Scandinavia and is now enjoyed as an outdoor activity around the world. Players take turns throwing a wooden pin at a set of numbered skittles, arranged a few metres away on an open area. Knocking down a single skittle scores its number, while knocking down several scores the number of skittles that fell.

The aim is to reach exactly 50 points. Go over and your score drops back to 25. Players who miss all skittles for three rounds in a row are eliminated. Accuracy and a little strategy matter more than strength, so children and adults can compete on equal terms.

The skittles and pin come packed in a sturdy wooden box, which keeps the set together between games.
