Read the full game description

A real-time dexterity game played by two teams. The teams race to use a plastic spatula to balance plastic pancakes in a stack in the right order without the stack falling over. The game is set up with 15 feet between the supply of pancakes and the plate where they are to be piled, and players on a team take turns using the spatula. Thus, the game takes the form of a relay race. From the box: It's a busy day at the diner! Help your customers get just what they ordered by racing the other servers to the grill, relay style, and piling up pancakes in the right order. The first player (or team) to find 'em, stack 'em and serve 'em up wins the game!
