You'll see this outer wall made as either a larger circle or an octagon. The playing surface is a large circle, but the game has an outer tray and wall to catch stray discs that are knocked off the board. Discs are pretty cheap, build the board, and buy the discs. I make discs as well in the video, but I don't recommend doing so after going through the process. Sounds like a chance to get out to the shop and have some fun.ĭownload and reference the accompanying PDF for some of the build plans. The only challenge is that the boards themselves are hard to come by. It's a fairly straight forward game, easy to pick up, tons of fun and quick to play. The full set of rules are easy to find online. The idea is to flick a disc from the outer circle and land it in the inner ring, but you can't score unless the opposing player has no discs on the surface, so you also have to use your discs to knock opposing discs off the board. Some boards are made with a 24-inch circle to maximize the number of boards that can be made from a standard 4'x8' sheet of plywood, but by golly, I want to be official, so this here I'ble is for a 26" board. Official Crokinole boards have a playing circle of 26 inches. After my sister met and married a fine Canadian fellow, he introduced our family to the game and now our holidays include Crokinole tournaments around the dining table. The winner of the next hand collects both pots.Perhaps like some of you, I had not heard of Crokinole for much of my life. If the next player also cannot play, this step repeats as necessary.If an impasse is reached (all players only have red cards), everyone counts their cards, and throws one chip/coin in the center pot for each card in their hand.
A player not having a card of the required colour, the play then moves clockwise.
