Ensky Snorlax Tsumutsumu Stacking Game

It's hard to find #snorlax #pokemon stuff so when this stacking game was announced by #Ensky I went ahead and got one. It's a stacking game with snorlax in 5 different poses and rings of apples.

The Snorlax Tsumutsumu game from Ensky
I used to have an ice cream stacking game a while back which I remembered was fairly easy and fun just as  a general party game so this looked promising. I played this with a group of 3 as a test drive.

Some stacking variations to try at different levels.
The game is recommended for 15+ years which we had a giggle about. The pieces are probably a choking hazard but I would trust at least a 10 year old not to put these in their mouth.

Snorlax looks pretty cute.

 We started from level 1. A bit wobbly but doable. This was going good!

This was pretty easy too.
Level 2 was pretty hard but we eventually figured that one out as well. However, eventually we hit a wall. There was just no getting everything to stay up. The thing is, the figures are made out of smooth, hard plastic. There's not much grip to them and most of snorlax is round. They're pretty small too so large fingers or unsteady hands make a mess of this.

We ended up staring at the pile of snorlax and apples, starting to understand the 15+ years label. It was so rage inducing, we were all frustrated and it just grew whenever one of us would give it another shot and failed. I can feel the anger rising as I type.

The end
Verdict, deceptively hard. 15+ years for self-control to not throw them out the window.
