Basically, Ntropy is a game of creative construction, calculated risk and cool nerve - there's even an element of modern art in there somewhere, possibly.

Players start with an equal number of drumstick-like sticks which they take in turn to place on the developing structure. Rolling a die determines how you must balance your stick, and if any sticks fall off during your go, they are added to your collection. The first person to get rid of all their sticks is the winner - unless of course the whole thing comes tumbling down.
