The Flying Games

The Flying Games burst onto the scene with Stomp the Plank, a raucous party game where pirates bounce on a springboard plank to launch rivals overboard. Known for tactile, physical components and laugh-out-loud moments, this Belgian publisher carved a niche in family-weight action games that blend dexterity with simple strategy. The XXL edition here amplifies the chaos with a larger board and chunkier pieces, making it a living-room centerpiece for groups who want instant fun over heavy rules.

Stomp the Plank suits 3–4 players looking for a quick, kinetic experience—think families with older kids or casual game nights where setup speed and table presence matter more than long-term depth. The springboard mechanism is polarizing: some adore the unpredictability, others find it gimmicky, but it consistently sparks laughter and repeat plays in the right crowd.
