About the game
A game of balance. Players place wooden blocks on a wooden seesaw trying to get it to tip. Each player starts with 22 wooden blocks and tries to become the first player to get rid of all their blocks. The blocks come in 4 different sizes (each size is a different color). On your turn, you place blocks in a single stack on the high side of the seesaw. You have to keep placing blocks until either the seesaw tips or the stack you are building collapses. If you tip the seesaw and then blocks fall off, those blocks are given to your opponent. However, if the stack collapses before the seesaw tips, then you get stuck with any blocks that fall onto the table. In either case, any blocks that stay on the seesaw are left there to complicate future turns. Steady hands and a little knowledge of physics helps.
Questions and answers
Kippit supports 2 players according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Kippit is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Kippit for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Kippit has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Kippit belongs to these categories: Action / Dexterity. Categories describe the theme, setting and style of a game rather than its rules. Filter the catalogue by the same category to find similar games when you enjoyed Kippit and want something comparable for your next game night.
