Yubibo is a cooperative dexterity game from Jelly Jelly Games where players link their fingers with wooden sticks and sponge balls to balance a shaky structure and collectively defy gravity.
How do you play the game?
In Yubibo, all players form a single team. On your turn, you draw a card that shows a colour and a specific finger. The active player and the nominated colour player must connect a new stick between those fingers, carefully resting each end on the indicated fingertips. As more cards are drawn, additional sticks are added and the structure becomes more unstable. For an extra challenge, you may balance sponge balls on top of the sticks, with only one ball per pair of sticks and no balls touching other balls or fingers. If any stick or ball falls to the table, the whole team immediately loses.
Why is this game a great choice?
Yubibo is a hilarious cooperative balance game that is incredibly easy to teach yet tense and unforgettable at the table, perfect as a party warm-up or quick family filler.
