  • 36 orange and gray Jenga blocks
  • Jenga Quake base (requires alkaline batteries, not included)

The First Time You Play

Insert the batteries (see Battery Information, below).

Prepare for the Jenga Quake

  1. Build the tower. Place three blocks per layer, alternating direction by layer. Decide who goes first.
  2. Press the power button. The LED will begin to pulsate slowly.
  3. Go! The tower can start to quake at any time. Play quickly, before the blocks crash!

On Your Turn

  1. Remove a block. With only one hand, remove a block from anywhere below the highest completed layer.
  2. Place the block on top of the tower. Wait 5 seconds.
    • If the tower falls before 5 seconds pass, you lose and you must rebuild the tower to start a new game.
    • If the tower remains standing for 5 seconds, the next player is up.

How to Win

Be the last player to stack a block without causing the tower to crash!

If you are playing solo, try to beat your own highest tower.

More to Know

  • When the base is ON, the LED is lit.
  • After 10 minutes, the LED will blink rapidly and then the base will go to sleep. To keep the base on or to wake it up, press the power button and the cycle of random vibrations will resume.
  • Turn the base OFF when you are finished playing by pressing and holding the power button for more than two seconds.
  • If the base does not function properly after batteries are replaced, push in the reset button, located in the battery compartment (use a paperclip if necessary).
  • If the tower falls in the brief time between two players' turns, the first player rebuilds the tower and the game continues with no penalty to either player.
  • Block colors are decorative only and do not affect gameplay.

Battery Information

To insert batteries, a Phillips/cross-head screwdriver (not included) is needed. The base takes 3 × 1.5V AA alkaline batteries (not included).

To avoid battery leakage:

  • Always follow the instructions carefully.
  • Use only the batteries specified, and insert them correctly by matching the + and – polarity markings.
  • Do not mix old and new batteries, or standard (carbon-zinc) with alkaline batteries.
  • Remove exhausted or dead batteries from the product.
  • Remove batteries if the product is not going to be played with for a long time.
  • Do not short-circuit the supply terminals.
  • Rechargeable batteries: do not mix them with other types of batteries. Always remove them from the product before recharging. Recharge batteries under adult supervision. Do not recharge other types of batteries.
  • If this product causes, or is affected by, local electrical interference, move it away from other electrical equipment. Reset it (switch off and back on again, or remove and re-insert the batteries) if necessary.
