Is a game of physical and mental skill in which sticks have to be removed from a pile without disturbing the remaining ones.
One root of the name "pick-up sticks" may be the line of a children's nursery rhyme, "...five, six, pick-up sticks!"
The sticks are bundled and taken in one hand that touches the table/ground.
The release creates a circular jumble.
Now one stick after another should be taken up without moving/touching others.
The take away could be by hand, possibly through pressing on a stick's tip or if one has already picked up a special stick (Mikado),
it could be used as a helper, possibly to throw up another stick.
It is allowed to stand up on but not to leave the own place.
A bad throw could be rerun and the rules should be kept strict in respect to moving sticks to enjoy the game.
On a fault the turn ends (the last stick taken is not counted).
The next player bundles and drops the sticks again.
After several rounds, normally five, the one with the highest score is the winner.
Our Mikado game consists of 35 sticks.
They are coded with different values that have a total of 164 points and are around 17 cm long.
CODING / POINT VALUE / NUMER OF STICKS

- Allowed helpers: only the Mikado if the player has at least one of all other sticks.
