How to Play Piko

Definition of Piko

Piko is a traditional Filipino game that resembles hopscotch. Players hop from one numbered square to another, following a specific pattern. The objective is to toss a marker onto a square and hop through the squares without stepping on the lines or missing a square.

How to Play

To play Piko, players draw a diagram on the ground with numbered squares. The first player tosses a small marker (like a stone or coin) onto the first square. The player must hop through the squares, skipping the one with the marker on it. If they reach the end without any mistakes, they pick up the marker on the way back and move to the next number. If the player touches the lines or steps on the wrong square, they lose their turn.
