This game is inspired by cairns, piles of stones embodying millennia-old landmarks in nature, linking man to his environment. Witnesses of time, they guide and symbolize balance, revealing a deep connection between mankind and the earth.

The rules of the game are simple. Each player starts with 200 points, and the aim is to stack as many pieces as possible in turn, and push the opponent to the limit. Once a piece has been chosen, you are no longer allowed to change it and must play with it.

When the tower collapses, the second-last piece to fall on the board marks the point deduction of the player currently laying the last piece. Once a player reaches 0 points, he has lost.

Step 1: 2D Pieces Cutting

Download the file containing the part templates from the supplies section.

If you have access to a laser cutter, you can cut the parts directly with the machine.

If not, you can print the parts on a sheet of paper, cut them out and then use these templates to draw the parts on the cardboard. Then, using a cutter, you can cut out the parts.

Step 2: Plateau Cutting

Once again, use the file in the supplies section containing the plateau.

If you have access to a laser cutter, you can cut out the tray directly and have the lettering engraved on the tray.

Alternatively, you can print the tray on a sheet of paper, cut it out and then use the template to draw the tray on the cardboard. Then, using a cutter, you can cut out the tray. For the squares and numbers, you can draw them with a pen.
