The Mölkky (Premium Wooden Crate) is an official outdoor throwing game by Tactic Games, featuring large wooden skittles stored in a sturdy wooden carry crate built for years of play.
How do you play the game?
Set up the 12 numbered skittles in the starting formation and take turns throwing the wooden baton (the Mölkky). If you knock down exactly one skittle, you score the number shown on that skittle. If you knock down more than one, you score the number of skittles that fell. After each throw, stand the skittles back up where they landed. Your goal is to reach exactly 50 points—go over 50 and your score drops back to 25. Miss three turns in a row without knocking anything down and you’re out. The rules are simple, but the “exactly 50” finish creates great tension, tactical risk-taking, and satisfying comebacks.
Why is this game a great pick?
This premium version stands out thanks to its full-size wooden pieces and sturdy wooden crate with handle—easy to bring to the garden, park, campsite, or beach. It’s quick to teach, works well with friends or family, and can be played as individuals or teams. Because overshooting 50 is punished, the endgame stays exciting and interactive every time.
