Overview

What ABG knows about this game

Catch a Falling Star, aka Die geheimnisvolle Sternschnuppe, is a game of skill in the vein of Klickado. The players attempt to re-light an extinguished fallen star. The star is positioned on top of a rod, and each player has several rays of light (sticks) that have to be added to the star. Some of the sticks have a magnet and can easily be attached; others have to be carefully piled on top. The first player to add all of his rays of light to the star wins. Re-implements: Klickado
