I'm trying to remember the rules to playing marbles. Can anyone help out? These are the rules closest I can find which resembles how I used to play?
Marbles involves rolling or throwing your marble to either try and hit a target marble or to hit the other players’ marbles.
Decide if you are playing for “keepsies” (players keep the marbles they win in the game) or “playing fair” (everyone gets their own marbles back at the end of the game).
Draw a circle on the ground. Each player should put an agreed number of marbles in it and stand behind a line drawn some distance away. The aim is to hit the marbles out of the circle.
Take turns to roll, throw or flick a marble (called a shooter) into the circle, trying to hit the marbles out of it.
If you knock a marble out of the taw you get to keep it. If the shooter stays in the circle, it stays there and it is the next players turn. If it comes out you can fetch it and have another go.
Carry on having turns until all the marbles in the circle have been won. The person with the most marbles wins.
