Mölkky is played outdoors and involves throwing a cylindrical wooden stick (called a Mölkky) at a group of numbered wooden pins. The aim of the game is to knock down the pins and score points based on the numbers of the pins knocked down. The first player or team to reach a pre-set score wins the game.
