4. Operating Instructions (How to Play)
The objective of the GOULA Fruit Tower is to stack the fruit pieces and boards without causing the tower to collapse.
Game Play:
- Players take turns rolling the wooden dice.
- The dice features images of different fruits. After rolling, the player must identify the fruit shown on the top face of the dice.
- The player then selects a wooden fruit piece that matches the fruit shown on the dice.
- Carefully place the selected fruit piece onto the tower. The goal is to stack the pieces and boards in a stable manner.
- Continue taking turns, rolling the dice and adding fruit pieces to the tower.
- The game continues until a player causes the tower to fall.
