If they strike a mib and knock it out of the circle, and their marble stays inside of the circle, they win the mib they knocked out and take another shot from inside of the circle wherever their marble landed. On a player's turn, they kneel outside of the circle and flick their marble into it using their thumb.
Place 13 marbles in a cross-shape at the center of the circle these are the “mibs” for the game. You can draw a circle in dirt, make a circle using string, or draw a chalk circle on a sidewalk. To set up the game, make a circle on the ground that’s about 3 feet (1-2 meters) in diameter. The goal of the game is to collect the most marbles (called “mibs”) by knocking them out of the play area.
Marbles is a classic game traditionally played with two teams of six players, although you can also play one-on-one.
