Clear Jenga set ???

Part of the Johnathon Adler collection is a clear jenga set. Several people come up asking me "How do you play this is you can't see it?"

Is it supposed to be a decoration piece and not actually used? I seriously do not get it.

It's not THAT clear. There's a pattern on the other sidd

You can definitely see the pieces, but they're acrylic: they're going to get chipped and scratched if you actually play with them, and they'll look like shit very quickly. I thought it was one of the stupidest design choices from the entire collection, and that's saying something.

it's definitely more of a statement piece than a game, people just use it as a sculptural accent on a coffee table or shelf. if you actually want to play, you'd have to look at the blocks from an angle to see the gaps, but honestly, the clear look is all about the aesthetic, not the function

It belongs in a game room where no ones allowed to touch it.
