Mikado is a world-famous game. The rules are very simple, so you can start right away!
The rules of Mikado:
The game requires patience, concentration, and of course, dexterity.
One player picks up all the sticks in one hand such that the sticks are upright with one end touching the playing surface. That player quickly opens their hand, letting the sticks fall into a pile. Players then remove sticks from the pile, one at a time, without moving any of the other sticks. If a player moves any sticks other than the one they are removing, their turn immediately ends, and the next player takes their turn. The player who picks up the Mikado stick (the stick with a blue spiral design) may use it to assist in the picking up of other sticks. The various sticks have differing point values:
| Quantity | Sticks | Point value |
| 1 | Mikado: Blue spiral | 20 |
| 5 | Blue/red/blue | 10 |
| 5 | Red/blue/red/blue/red | 5 |
| 15 | Red/yellow/blue | 3 |
| 15 | Red/blue | 2 |
| Total points | 170 |
