Buckaroo!
A balancing dexterity game built around loading a stubborn pack animal. Players take turns adding various items to the animal’s back, testing balance and weight limits. Each turn requires placing a different piece without tipping the animal; if the load becomes unstable the animal kicks and pieces scatter. Players score or are eliminated based on who causes the tumble, and gameplay continues until a winner emerges. Components include a plastic animal figure and assorted load pieces; a themed variant swaps the animal for a camel.
