How to Play:

Goal
Like Tic Tac Toe, your goal is to line up 3 of your cones in a row. It doesn't matter whether they're large, medium, or small, vertically, horizontally or diagonally arranged.

Contents
1 game board
3 small cones of each color
3 medium cones of each color
2 large cones of each color
2 cone holders in the same color as the game board
1 lid

Procedure
Set the lid and holders aside.
Then the younger of you chooses a color and you place all 8 cones of your color in front of you.
The younger of you can also place the first cone.

For the next games, decide whether you'll alternate placing the first cone or whether the winner of the previous game always takes the second turn.

Place a cone on an empty space. It's up to you whether you choose a small, medium, or large one.
Now it's the other player's turn and they can either place a cone on an empty space or a larger piece on top of another.
This continues in turns. Either a cone on an empty space or a larger cone on top of another.

End
The first player to line up three cones of their color, regardless of size, wins the game!

Tips
You don't always have to start with the small cone.
You can also place a large cone on top of a small one without a medium cone in between.
Is it better for you to place your cone on an empty space or on top of another?
You can also place a larger cone on top of your own.
Be sparing with the large cones; you only have two.
Keep track of the number of cones of each size your opponent has.

Have fun!
