How to Play

That's up to you! The model includes two target options:

  • A large basket with multiple rings for different score values
  • Tipping targets that reveal a grave stone when toppled
  • I recommend creating your own games, challenges, and 3D printed targets!

Caution

The mini pumpkins weigh less that 2 grams, but use judgement when launching. Do not launch heavy items.
