Beginner’s Guide to TREEBONK!
What is treebonk?
Treebonk is a game where players (or ‘bonkers’) fling themselves into large trees. Then they must immediately bounce off that tree onto another tree, and then another, and so on, for as long as possible.
That sounds quite hard.
It is.
Are you allowed to touch the ground?
Nope.
How many bonkers are on one team?
There is no limit to the number of bonkers you can have on a treebonk team. But both teams must have an equal amount of bonkers. This means there can be a great big treebonk battle with a hundred bonkers on each team. Or there can be an intense duel with bonker against bonker.

What else happens?
Players can upset their opponents using the following methods:
Colliding in mid-air so you both crash to the ground.
Hiding in trees to tickle the armpits of the enemy.
Leaving sticky things on trunks (e.g. honey or glue) to slow down other treebonkers.
How do you win at treebonk?
The last treebonker standing wins the match.
I thought you weren’t allowed to stand?
Oh, you know what I mean.
Is treebonk dangerous?
Yes.
Is treebonk stupid?
Yes.
Why are we all playing treebonk then?
There wasn’t room for a tennis court.
