See-saw strategy

To win Rock Me Archimedes, you'll need to balance rock-steady hand coordination with critical thinking.

The entire game board rolls on a semi-circle base for a one-on-one skill game with victory teetering in the balance... because one touch of the table, and it’s over!

Rock and roll all night!

A balancing act

Rock Me Archimedes combines zen aesthetic, the nerve-wracking pressure of manual finesse, and the emotional charge of competition.

To declare victory, get four of your marbles into the dark end zone on the opposite end of the board before your opponent. Take turns with your opponent moving your marbles along the grooves as you push them out from the fulcrum to the end zone. If your move causes either end of the rocker board to touch the table, you automatically forfeit the game!

Leverage your critical thinking to win.

The total teeter-totter

Your position in Rock Me Archimedes might be unsteady, but the build quality of the set is solid. Made with a wooden board, rocker, and platform, the game pieces cleverly stow away in the fulcrum base.

The set includes a carved board, slide-out rocker, platform, marble tray, wooden die, 12 black marbles, and 12 white marbles.

The game pieces fit inside the base for easy storage.
