Zitterpartie

A simple dexterity game consisting of a small platform with a stick attached to it, 12 colored gaming pieces, 1 colored die and 5 chits. The active player holds the stick with the platform in one hand and rolls the die with the other. He then puts one of the gaming pieces (in the color corresponding to the die roll) onto the platform and then passes the resulting "tower" (platform plus gaming piece) on to the next player, who rolls the die, adds another playing piece and passes the tower on. Players who drop one or more gaming pieces take a penalty chit. When there are no penalty chits left, the player with the fewest chits wins the game.
