Cairn

Stack smooth river stones into a teetering tower while the breeze nudges it — patience over haste.

How to play

Drag river stones one at a time onto a growing cairn. Each stone shifts the balance, and every few seconds a breath of wind nudges the stack. Place carefully and your cairn holds; finished towers line up along the shoreline gallery.

• Drag a stone from the side and drop it onto the cairn
• Centre your weight to keep the stack from toppling
• Brace for periodic wind gusts that test your balance
• Completed cairns join the shoreline collection

Controls

• Desktop: click and drag stones into position
• Phone & tablet: drag stones with a finger to place them

Tips & strategy

• Keep each stone's weight near the centre line to stay stable
• Place wider, flatter stones low and lighter ones up top
• Wait out a gust before adding your next stone
