Arch Rival
Published 1992
This is a dexterity game in the same vein as Bamboleo. On a base you set two arc supports. On these you place 13 colored coded tubs in an arch. You then remove the arch supports so the tubs support themselves in a semicircle. There are 50 sticks in various colors and shapes that must be put into the tubs. You roll two dice, one of which tells you how many pieces to place, and the other tells you into which color of tub you must place them. You can also roll 'arch rival' on the color die and then an opponent will pick the color of the tub. This goes on until the arch can no longer support itself and collapses. Whoever caused that to happen loses.
