• Hop Pop is played between 2-4 players. Each player starts with 10 points. The goal is to ‘race to zero’ — reduce points the fastest and reach zero to win.

• Move your marble to the next empty hole or jump over other marbles to make bigger leaps, before the timer runs out.

• You can move only one marble in a turn. Each possible move from current position is highlighted in the game.

• Jumping over opponents’ marble eliminates that marble and reduces the score by 2 points. Any player who loses all the marbles is out of the game.

• Every marble that reaches the opposite home reduces the score by 5 points.

• The player who reaches ‘0’ first wins. The total points of the remaining players are added to decide the total cash prize.
