Sjoelbak

"Sjoelen" is the name of this game from Holland where players use their hand to propel 30 wooden pucks into compartments at the end of an almost two-metre-long board (distributing them as equally as possible). It sounds easy, but it actually gets harder or even impossible as pucks accumulate in front of the four compartments. If a puck gets stuck in the entrance to one of the compartments, it can be knocked through the opening by the next puck, similar to billiards.
We offer a fold-up, portable version of the “Sjoelbak” (as the board used for “sjoelen” is called).

It is the outstanding workmanship that makes Alfaset's board games so special. The Swiss manufacturer uses mainly native woods such as maple, birch, and beech and is fitting together the individual parts with fascinating precision; all elements are neatly bonded and the surfaces meticulously finished. In short: Alfaset's games are in a class of their own. And they also appeal to both, children and adults! The rules are simple and easy to follow, and success depends on luck rather than on talent. This is why sometimes players are being driven up the wall – but just as quickly back to the board again.
The games are made in the company's five own workshops near Lake Neuchâtel, Switzerland. To a large extent, Alfaset employs people with disabilities who work together with qualified carpenters.

Not suitable for children under 3 years. Choking hazard: contains small parts.

The board surface can become dull after prolonged use. Polish with beeswax will renew lustre and former smoothness.
