Men at Work
Higher and higher, the construction grows. Before long, the steel girders reach dizzying heights. Fearlessly, the workers carry on, with nothing more than hardhats to protect them. The danger of collapse hangs over everything — so just make sure that nothing happens! You also have to impress Rita, the boss, if you want to be Employee of the Month. There’s a lot to do, so let’s get going!
Men At Work is a stacking and balancing game in which players compete as workers on a job site who are carefully constructing a tower to avoid accidents and, maybe, earn Employee of the Month. The game includes three gaming modules to add loads of replayability, as well as wooden components housed within a well-designed insert for easy set up.

Essen 2018 - my plays say 2 but I suspect I've played this closer to 20. Have bought to last three family cons and its always a hit with adults and children. Especially adults after a few drinks. One of the best of the dexterity games and super components.

I'm not made for stacking games. Generally I'm not a fan of these, but this is a good game. I had a lot of fun while playing it. Component quality is pretty high. I don't know how much staying power this has but for an occasional round or two this is a very good game.

If you are looking for a dexterity game, it is good, but it has a bit of rules complexity that on one hand makes for great diversity of challenge over the course of a game, and on the other hand makes it fairly finicky to explain or work through.
