Product Information
Full details
The Mölkky - LG-EXPRO is an engaging outdoor throwing game designed for players of all ages who enjoy active social recreation. Its primary benefit is the combination of physical dexterity and strategic counting, making it a perfect addition to backyard gatherings or park outings. One caveat is that the game requires a relatively flat, open playing surface, as the pins must be stood upright exactly where they land after each throw.

FAQs
How many players can play Mölkky?
Mölkky is designed for two or more players, or teams, making it highly flexible for large groups.
What happens if I knock over zero pins?
If you miss all pins three times in a row, you are eliminated from the game.
Do I have to aim at the pins with the highest numbers?
Not necessarily. Strategic players often choose to knock over single pins to reach the exact 50-point target or to break up a cluster.
Can I play on concrete?
While possible, playing on hard surfaces like concrete or asphalt will cause the wooden pins to dent and crack much faster than playing on grass or sand.
What is the best way to reset the pins?
Pick up the pin and stand it upright at the exact spot where its base came to rest after being knocked over.
Is there a weight requirement for the baton?
The baton is weighted for standard throwing distances of 3 to 4 meters; no modifications are necessary for official gameplay.
Troubleshooting
Pins are difficult to stand up in soft ground
Ensure the ground is level. If the ground is too sandy or loose, place a flat piece of wood or use a hard-surfaced mat beneath the pin formation area.
The score is unclear after a complex throw
Establish a 'referee' or designated scorekeeper at the start of the game to verify which pins have been knocked over before they are reset to their new positions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: find a level outdoor area, arrange the pins in the designated tight formation, and mark a throwing line 3 to 4 meters away. The set is compatible with any lawn, park, or beach area with enough clearance.
To ensure the longevity of your LG-EXPRO set, wipe the wooden pins and baton with a dry cloth after each use to remove dirt or moisture. Store the set in a cool, dry place inside a canvas bag or box to prevent warping due to humidity or temperature fluctuations. Avoid leaving the wood exposed to rain or damp soil for extended periods.
