Under limited time, each group must then construct the most stable and the tallest tower that they could make using the materials given. Through careful planning and team work, the group under time pressure will have to maximize what resources that they have. At the end of the allotted time, the finished towers are placed next to each other and the facilitator will determine which tower is the tallest. The group with the tallest tower will win the game.

The good thing about the games is that each team get bonded in each activity and at the end of the day you should be able to get the participants closer to each other. Aside from the learning that they have acquired, they get to bond over something that they have and that is the love for wine.
