Rock Me Archimedes

A two-player abstract game of strategy and dexterity played on a wooden board balanced on a rounded base. Each player moves marbles toward their chosen end while keeping the board from touching the table. On a turn, a player either places a marble in one of the central rows or rolls a die showing one to three spaces, then moves their marbles that distance. Movement is orthogonal and may be split between pieces; opposing marbles can be jumped, but friendly marbles cannot. The first player to move four marbles into the last two rows at their end wins, while tipping the board loses the game immediately. Several variants are included.
