The objective of Hau La is to be the player with the highest piece in the tower that all the players build together. The rules are very simple. On your turn, you must add one building piece to the tower. The problem is that the pieces used to construct the tower are made of a soft sponge-like material that bends easily. If your new piece bends and touches another piece it cannot be placed. To win, you will need a plan, and a bit of dexterity and above all else an imagination to figure out the final shape of the tower. The final tower always looks like a modern art sculpture. This game was the most popular self-published game in Game Market 2009 in Tokyo,Japan.
