Bamboo Bash Panda Dexterity Game for 2 to 8 Players

Bamboo Bash Panda Dexterity Game

Take turns whacking the bamboo shoot with the Panda Paw, trying to knock off only the outer bark for points while keeping the baby panda cub safely on top. Think Jenga, but every turn is its own moment of chaos, and every swing counts. Fast, funny, and surprisingly strategic, Bamboo Bash plays in 15 minutes or less and is great for families, friends, and kids.

How to Play

On your turn, hit the Bamboo Shoot with the Panda Paw. You may hit any part of the shoot up to three times per turn. Any Bamboo Bark, Stem Centers, or the Panda Cub that fall off are claimed by the player who knocked them loose. The game ends when 2 or fewer Stem Centers remain or no more Bark can be claimed.

Scoring

• +1 point for each Bamboo Bark chunk claimed
• -6 points for each Stem Center claimed
• +4 bonus points for the player with the most leaf-bearing Bark chunks, as long as they did not knock off the Panda Cub
• Most points wins. Ties go to the player who went later in turn order.
