How to play Jenga?

Each player takes one turn at removing a single block from the tower and then placing it on top of the stack. Players are not allowed to move blocks around or knock over the tower during their turn. Jenga is different from other games because there can be a lot of winners. The point of the game is to not be the loser. 

There are find several rules variations online. Some are stricter with the “no moving” rule than others, while some allow nudging the tower ever so slightly by straightening crooked blocks before pulling them out or putting them back on. Whatever set of rules a person plays with, though, the winner is the one who doesn’t knock the tower over.
