Thank you for creating this page, we refer Noobies here to learn the rules. Tock (also known as Tuck in some English parts of Quebec and Atlantic Canada and Pock in parts of Alberta) is a board game, similar to Ludo, Aggravation or Sorry!, in which players pass their four tiles (or marbles) around the board from start to finish – the goal is to be the first to bring all their chips “home”. How sorry! is played with playing cards instead of dice. It`s a great game, but make sure you play the game that`s right for your family or business. Remember not to choose the rules that make the game last too long. It`s much more interesting to play 3 or 4 games than it`s a long game. Any combination of card functions can be used in the game. Just make sure that each player knows all the options that can be used in the game before playing. In addition to a “free for all” style of play, the game also supports a variety of team modes. All team-based variants have in common that once a team member has managed to bring all their tokens home, they help move their partners` tokens. If the first player to bring all the marbles home plays a seven, the rest can be used to move the partner`s marbles. Even after each hand, team members exchange a card with each other. Each player has a starting area where his pawns are placed at the beginning of the game.
Near the starting area, a field in the playing circle is marked in the player`s color. This is the launch room. When a pawn is put into play (see Ace or King), it is placed on this starting field. Farmers are protected on this starting field. They can`t be eaten, they can`t be sautéed, and they can`t be traded by a boy. As soon as a farmer leaves the launch site, protection ends, even if he returns! I just found this page. We have been using this Super Tock “Board” for several years and have seen several variations of the rules depending on the location (local rules). Note that we do not use the sky spot. Below you will find “our” rules of the game. TOCK RULES (after Roger) 1. The game is played with 52 cards, plus “Joker” What are the rules of the game “Tock Plus”? manufactured by Prince Industries, and where there are two crossed rows of marbles in the center of the board????? I can`t find them anywhere, lol, these are the rules, but when I read all this, I see that everyone makes their own rules anyway.
Imagine if we all got together with our own rules and tried to play a game. lol Both methods seem strange to me – I just don`t know how to interpret these rules for dealing the cards. All right. In my game, your marble cannot exceed 17 on the way home. Therefore, a five would bring your marble home. Stick to the rules that came with the board, any other rule invented here is ridiculous. It`s like changing the rules in a Texas Hold`em game or changing the rules of curling. It`s stupid and ridiculous that someone invented this game to be played a certain way, and shame on those who completely change the game. There are too many lazy people to make your own board game out there, I`m confused about the cards.
The way we play, 5 cards are dealt, and each turn you play a card or discard, then you draw a new card. So you keep 5 cards in your hand (unless you forget to draw one card, then you have four cards for the rest of the game). He has been playing for over 50 years. These are the rules we have always used. However, did not have the joker in the game. The instructions provided with my game said yes, you can change with a player in heaven or on any 8th square. If the game is played by 4 players: Number of cards dealt: 52. 5 cards are dealt in the first round, 4 cards in each of the next 2 rounds. And then the cards are shuffled again to continue the game.
If the game is played by 3 players: 5 cards are dealt in the first round, 4 cards in each of the next 3 rounds and the last card is discarded. If the game is played by 2 players: 5 cards are dealt in the first two moves, 4 cards in each of the next 4 turns. You must have found these rules. None of these rules exist on a box that the board of directors comes into. I`ve been playing this game for 20 years and I hate it when people make extreme rules. OFFER: 4 players: The dealer deals 5 cards to each player. The player to the left of the dealer begins to play a card (if he can) to bring a marble into his starting position. The game continues clockwise until the hand is finished. Then, the same dealer deals 4 more cards to each player.
The game continues in successive hands until the deck is finished. Deal then goes to the next player on the left, who trades in the same way. Repeat until the game is won. Need help! My father bought a handcrafted version of this game in Siesta Key, Florida. We enjoyed playing with my parents for many years. After my father passed away last year, we found that the game was gone. We found a photo of the game to be able to make one, but we have no indications. I`m just wondering if anyone on this site has ever bought one in Florida and has the instructions to share it. Long Shot I know, but I hope! In team matches, the team that first brings the pawns of both players to their respective homes wins. After the first player of a team brings all his pawns to his homeland, both players continue to play with the remaining color.
But I have to say – my family`s rules are not official rules – I learned the game 10 years ago from a Canadian, created our own charts and never owned an official version. 🙂 So what is the name of the game and by whom is it made? We play this game a little differently. My wife`s family was introduced to this game by a Canadian friend about 10 years ago. It is now a favorite past for all of us! Give each player each hand as 5, then 4, 4 more and discard 2. A, K & Joker are the coming-out cards. They cannot be played in any other way until all the marbles are outside the starting range. Once you disable A=1, K=13, and Joker=15, you`ll need to use a coming-out card to get back into the game, and you can`t use a coming-out card as a move on another ball that`s out. The 4 must always move back 4 digits (this is the only card that moves back). The cylinders are SWITCH 7 boards are SPLIT cards (7 spaces are distributed between several balls or all used on one ball. Q=12 All other cards are forward-facing only. The game moves clockwise and continues as described above. We have no shortcuts or “heaven” on our board.
Free-for-all: This is the single player game, everyone fights for themselves, no pity, no friends, just run and eat any pawn that is the wrong color. Thank you very much. So many different ways to play. I think everyone easily adapts the game to them. Great game. I love playing it. Thanks again. The rules are not complete and difficult to understand Can you send me the full rules to my email address? Thank you. I remember learning this from a Canadian family – but without the playing cards.
Use two dice to play – and you need to have a double to get started. You can only continue from `18` if your double was a double six – continue with two places. If not, wait for the next litter before moving. My board is printed as in the picture – always curious about images of playing cards. It was only recently that I learned computer skills and tried to discover something about the game. I just came across this page tonight. Acknowledgements From Quebec, the game Jeu du Toc (or Tock) moved to France, where it is also known as the Little Canadian Horses Game. Tock is also similar to the French game Jeu des petits chevaux, in which movements are determined by rolling dice instead of cards. Tock is a game designed by (Uncredited) and published by (Public Domain). Tock is a game of cross and circle in the style of Pachisi, an Indian game that has been played since the first millennium BC. The exact origin of Tock is unclear, but it is traditionally thought to have originated from the first settlers of Quebec, Canada.
[ref. needed] Leta, we first heard about this game on vacation in Florida and wanted to get it. We searched the Internet and found different prices, and then the shipping costs to get it to Canada were substantial. It`s done by a Quebec company, but their website doesn`t even mention it. We contacted a local toy store who said they could order it for us for $29.95 (+ taxes) and we got it within 2 weeks.
