Building a card tower with Kardtects Building Cards is a lot easier than using any other card.  And since Kardtects Cards are specifically designed for building, not only card houses, but card towers, Kardtects (card architects) can build a tower faster and higher than ever before!

One way to have a lot of fun building card towers is by challenging yourself on how high you can go by beginning with the Kardtects Square and building up from there, one Kardtects Square on top of another.  How many levels can you get before it falls down?

Master Kardtects have never reached 30 single levels high.  They have only ever built 27 straight up single levels or by way of the Kardtects Square.  But we keep trying!  Will you beat us to this elusive height first?

Challenging yourself on how high you can go is only one way to take the Kardtects card tower challenge.

Other ways are as follows:

• Have competitions with other builders on who can get to 10 levels first? 15 levels? Or even just 5.  Agree on any number of levels and race to build.
• Compete on who can build the most levels before the card tower falls down.
• Time yourself on how long it takes to build a card tower of a given amount of levels, and continue to see if you can beat it

The Kardtects Square is a method of building which is used often.  Here’s how to build a card tower using just that.

Like all card structures do, it begins with two cards.  The two cards lean against each other to provide a balance for both to stand.  Stand one card and lean another against the top corner.

Then a third card is leaned against the top corner of the other side.

Next is to lean a face card against both side card bottom corners so that the fourth card finishes off the base square.

Last it is time to add the roof.  Place roof cards on top leaving an overhang. And instead of placing cards parallel to each other on top of the base square, place them perpendicular, or at 90 degrees angle, while leaving a small inner square open in center of base square.

The overhang is important because it provides space to build the next level.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now repeat and build a card tower as high as you can go!  Or you might want to build a Rocket Ship card tower!

Building using only the Kardtects Square, and seeing how high or how fast you can build, is the Kardtects Square Card Tower Challenge!
