Tumble Tower, also known as Jenga, is played around the world. Fifty-four rectangular wooden blocks are stacked in a tower formation. Players take turns removing a block from the tower and placing it on top - with the aim of not toppling the tower!

The origins of the game can be traced back to Africa. The modern version of the game was created by Leslie Scott in the 1970s. Scott was inspired to create the game after playing a similar game with her family in Africa. She named the game Jenga, a word derived from the Swahili word kujenga, which means ‘to build’.

The Guinness World Record for the tallest Tumble Tower was set in 2021 by a group in Minnesota, who built a tower measuring 9.83m. The game has been used in various scientific studies to explore the concepts of stability, friction, and gravity. Researchers have used Tumble Tower to study how objects interact and respond to different forces.

Tumble Tower is a fun and engaging game that challenges players’ dexterity and strategic thinking and can be enjoyed by all ages.
