BONK is a wooden game of skill with which you can compete against your friends. The aim is to get a wooden ball into the opponent's court. Let me tell you more.
Bonk isn't about losing the ball. The game of skill straight from Finland is played by four players (two teams of two). The aim is to send the wooden ball into the opposing camp.

How to play BONK
The best way is to play BONK with four people - two teams of two. You can also play one-on-one, but, as the game is also a game of speed, it gets quite intense.
Each player stands at a corner of the BONK and has three metal balls. The two teams stand facing each other and the target ball is positioned in the centre of the board. At the start, everyone starts empty-handed and each game only begins after the collective high five (see video).
All players start at the same time and try to push the wooden target ball into the opposing team's goal using the metal balls. To do this, the balls must be placed on each player's slide. When a team succeeds, it scores a point.
After a goal, the target ball is placed back in the centre of the board and a new round begins with a high five. Metal balls can be distributed within the team at any time. However, you cannot give any balls to your opponents. If a team runs out of marbles at the start of a round, each member receives a marble from the opposing team.
The first team to reach five points has won. 🏆
What I think of BONK:
BONK reminds me a lot of Klask. Which isn't surprising, as both games come from the same house. However, the games last much less time for BONK than Klask. Regardless of your level of practice or skill, BONK is always fast and unpredictable. That's one of the reasons I love playing this game so much.
It usually only takes a few minutes for a team to reach five points. The game is super fast-paced and entertaining, which makes it a lot of fun. It's perfect for a quick break at the office or a quick game with the kids.
I can't recommend BONK enough. The game installs quickly, the games are short and even after several games, you're still having fun. Personally, I'll definitely be giving the game another go!
