4. How to Play
4.1 Objective
The objective of Twister is to be the last player remaining on the mat. Players must follow the commands of the spinner, placing their hands and feet on the designated colored spots without falling over or touching the mat with any other body part.
4.2 Starting the Game
- Select one player to be the referee. The referee will operate the spinner and call out the moves.
- Players stand on opposite sides of the mat, facing each other.
- Each player places one foot on a yellow spot and one foot on a blue spot.
4.3 Taking Turns
- The referee spins the spinner. The spinner will indicate a body part (left hand, right hand, left foot, or right foot) and a color (red, yellow, blue, or green).
- All players must immediately move the specified body part to an empty spot of the called-out color.
- If the specified body part is already on a spot of that color, or if all spots of that color are occupied, the referee spins again.
- Players cannot move a body part from one spot to another without a command from the spinner, unless another player needs to use the spot.
4.4 Losing the Game
A player is eliminated from the game if:
- Their knee or elbow touches the mat.
- They fall over.
- They remove a hand or foot from a spot without a command from the spinner.
4.5 Winning the Game
The last player remaining on the mat wins the game.

5. Game Variations
The Twister game includes additional moves to enhance gameplay:
- Spinner's Choice: If the spinner lands on 'Spinner's Choice', the referee can choose any body part and color combination.
- Air: If the spinner lands on 'Air', the player must lift the specified hand or foot into the air, without touching the mat.
6. Care and Storage
- To clean the mat, wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely before folding.
- Store the mat and spinner in the original box in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.
- Avoid playing with shoes on the mat to prevent tears or scuffs. Socks or bare feet are recommended.
7. Troubleshooting
- Spinner not spinning freely: Check if the arrow is properly attached to the base and not obstructed by any debris.
- Mat slipping: Ensure the mat is placed on a non-slip surface. For outdoor use, consider securing the corners.
