How to play:

There are lots of ways to play TOSS IT!

Select a game mode from the list below and learn how to play.

(We recommend reading Redemption vs No Redemption and CLASSIC first to better understand the other game modes)

OH by the way... THERE ARE NO POINTS. WHAT??!! I know... every other game out there has you trying to keep score while you're trying to have a good time. TOSS IT! is more like a race to the middle black square. It's simpler this way.

GAME MODES

SET UP

1. After laying out the mat and securing the corners, split all players into 2-4 teams. 

2. Teams (1+ players) are recommended to stand 8-10ft away from their colored side. You may adjust the tossing distance based on skill as depicted above.

3. Decide who tosses first. We recommend playing rock-paper-scissors to decide.

REDEMPTION vs NO REDEMPTION

Certain game modes can be played with a redemption at the end!

These modes include CLASSIC, PARTY MODES, EASY 3, MAJORITY RULES, ON A ROLL, and DUEL. (Excludes LIGHTNING and H.O.R.S.E)

*Redemption vs No Redemption. 

No Redemption: After a team has landed their final bag in the middle black square, they are declared the winner.

Redemption: After a team has landed their final bag in the middle black square, one player/team has one chance to knock out as many of the "winning" color's bags as possible. (Choose wisely which team will take the shot!) If only the middle square is knocked out, then that team will need to aim for the middle again next turn. If a normal bag is knocked out, then that team will need to aim for that empty square AND the middle black square again. If no bags are knocked out, then that team is the winner. 

CLASSIC

*Check rules for Redemption vs No Redemption and determine how you will play BEFORE the game starts. (Located at the 2nd drop down)

1. The first team will toss their bag onto the board with the goal of getting it 100% in one of their 6 colored squares. (100% is defined as no part of the bag hanging over the color and into the black border. You should be able to look down from above and see it 100% within the colored square). After tossing once, the player to their left will toss once with the same goal.  

2. The game will continue in this way until all 28 bags have been tossed. Players will then pick up any bags that are not 100% within their correct colored square. 

3. Players will then go back to their spots and continue tossing until one team has landed 6 of their 7 bags entirely in their 6 colored squares. After returning to their spots, whichever team tossed first will toss again. It does not matter who has more or less bags. If red team tossed first, red team will always toss first for that game. 

4. Beware of getting too far ahead of the other teams because they may just target your good bags and knock them out of their square, causing you to get set back from your lead. 

5. The first team to successfully land all 6 bags, must then land their final bag in the middle black square to win. 

6. The first team to have all 7 bags 100% in their squares, wins.🏆

 

PARTY MODE

PARTY MODE 🎉

Same play style as CLASSIC, but every time a player lands a bag in their square, they pick one opponent to complete a punishment/challenge. In the case that the selected player has no more bags in hand, they must do a punishment/challenge that does not involve a bag (EX: 10 push ups, 10 burpees, etc.) or complete their given punishment/challenge during the next round of tossing. 

Suggested Punishments/Challenges

  • Next toss is on one foot 
  • Next toss is with one or both eyes closed 
  • Next toss is with their non-dominant hand 
  • Player skips a turn
  • Toss from 20 feet away
  • Toss like a basketball shot 
  • Player must do 10 pushups
  • Player must spin around 10 times before next toss
  • Toss from behind the back 
  • Toss like a granny

ADULTS... try these suggested punishments.

  • Slapping the player to your left/right
  • Take a sip/shot of your preferred beverage
  • Some form of public embarrassment

Use these suggested punishments/challenges or come up with your own! Share your ideas on socials using #tossitgame and we may just add yours to the list!

EASY 3

*Check rules for Redemption vs No Redemption and determine how you will play BEFORE the game starts. (Located at the 2nd drop down)

- Just like CLASSIC TOSS IT!, but you only need to get 3 bags in 3 squares, instead of all 6, to move onto the middle black square. 

- Recommended for young kids, beginners, and far from sober adults. 🎯

LIGHTNING

*Games move too fast for Redemption. 

- A lightning-quick version of CLASSIC!

- All players will throw their bags at the board at the same time. (No Turns)

- After a player has thrown all of their bags, they run to the board and collect any missed bags.

- Go back to your spot and continue throwing and collecting until 6 bags are on all 6 colored squares and the 7th bag is in the middle black square. 

-  There are no turns, just chaos as everyone tries to be the first to land their 7th bag in the middle. 

-  Beware of cheaters moving their bags onto the colored squares when they run in to collect their bags!⚡

MAJORITY RULES

*Check rules for Redemption vs No Redemption and determine how you will play BEFORE the game starts. (Located at the 2nd drop down)

-  Just like CLASSIC TOSS IT!, but slightly easier.

(However, it might lead to more arguments.)

-  In CLASSIC mode, bags must be 100% within the square. No part of the bag can be over the black line separating the squares. 

-  In MAJORITY RULES, bags must be more than 50% in the square. This allows for a little wiggle room when completing the squares. 

- But keep an eye on whoever checks the bag to see if it's good or not! We don’t want any cheaters “accidentally” moving the bags! 🧑‍⚖️

H.O.R.S.E.

*No need to play Redemption with H.O.R.S.E

-  The classic childhood game that’s usually played with a basketball, but now with mini sand bags. 

- Set up the game board and call your shots. 

-  Players take turns calling which box they’re aiming for and how they’re going to get it there.

-  If a player lands the called shot, the other players must try to recreate it. If they succeed, they are safe. If they fail, they get a letter. Once a player collects all 5 letters of HORSE they are out.

-  If a player calling the shot misses, nothing happens and the next player in line calls their shot. 

-  This goes on until all players but one reach all letters of HORSE. 

(You can use any word you’d like but HORSE is the most well-known name for the game). 🐎

ON A ROLL

*Check rules for Redemption vs No Redemption and determine how you will play BEFORE the game starts. (Located at the 2nd drop down)

- In most of the other modes you only get one chance to throw your bag per turn. You either nail it or miss it.

- In "On a Roll" we reward players who have practiced their good aim. If you land your bag in the square, you get another toss within that turn. However, once you miss a toss, your turn is over. The person to your left now has a chance to show off their tossing skills. This means that you could potentially WIN the game in just one turn if you can manage to land all 7 bags in their correct colored squares without a mistake. 

- Do you have what is takes to be On a Roll? 🥐

DUEL

*Check rules for Redemption vs No Redemption and determine how you will play BEFORE the game starts. (Located at the 2nd drop down)

- DUEL is a 1v1 faceoff between either 2 teams or 2 people.

- Teams take turns tossing their bags just like in the CLASSIC game mode.

- Be the first to land your 7th bag in the middle black square and claim victory!

- Wanna up the challenge? Each team/player takes 14 bags (2 teams worth). Teams/players must now toss and land 14 bags instead of 7 to win. 🤺
