Jamanga is a massive, colourful tower game that puts your skill and tactics to the test! It comes with a giant dice which, when thrown, gives you a choice of two colours. Your goal is to carefully remove a brick of the chosen colour from the towering structure. Get it right, and the tower remains standing tall; make a wrong move, and it'll come crashing down! When it tumbles, everyone shouts, "JAMANGA!"

The unique Jamanga tower blocks are solid shapes, but they're constructed with a soft foam outer surface layer. This clever design offers several advantages over traditional block towers. They're much softer and safer, making them ideal for younger players and reducing the risk of bumps or scrapes. Plus, when the tower inevitably crashes, it's far less noisy than a wooden block tower collapsing, which is a win for everyone's ears!

Why this Jamanga Tower is helpful:

  • Develops Fine Motor Skills: Carefully removing blocks enhances dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
  • Encourages Strategic Thinking: Players must consider which blocks to remove to maintain stability or challenge opponents.
  • Promotes Problem-Solving: Figuring out how to keep the tower standing (or make it fall for your opponent) engages critical thinking.
  • Boosts Concentration: The game requires focus and attention to detail.
  • Provides Active Fun: While a tabletop game, the large size encourages more dynamic interaction.
  • Great for Group Play: Jamanga is perfect for families and friends to enjoy together, fostering social interaction and friendly competition.
  • Safer Play Experience: The soft foam construction significantly reduces the risk of injury during collapses.
  • Reduced Noise: No more loud crashes, making for a more enjoyable playing environment.

Things to consider when purchasing the Jamanga Tower:

  • Playing Surface: Due to its size and the potential for the tower to fall, ensure you have a clear, flat and spacious playing area.
  • Storage: The large blocks will require ample storage space when not in use.
  • Supervision for Younger Children: While designed to be safer, adult supervision is still recommended for younger children to ensure proper play and prevent any accidental tumbles.
  • Outdoor Play: The durable foam blocks make this game suitable for both indoor and outdoor play, but consider weather conditions if playing outdoors.
  • Cleaning: The foam surface may require occasional wiping down if played with frequently, especially outdoors.
  • Game Variations: Consider inventing your own house rules or variations to keep the game fresh and exciting.
  • Ages: Suitable for ages 3+ years.
  • Contents & Size: Includes 36 Plastic Coloured Bricks 18 (L) x 6 (W) x 4 (H) cm and a 1 x Giant dice 18 x 18cm.
