Rules Overview

THE GREAT

Japanese Puzzle

Place the Bear "the white marble" in the Fort.

Place the Japs "the colored marbles" outside the Fort "anywhere" then by careful manipulation tilt the box so that the Japs will enter the Fort.

After all the Japs have entered, then cause the Bear to run out, when the trick is done; but should the Bear run out before all the Japs are in, it does not count, you must commence all over again.
