This game requires precision and accuracy, and the contestants have to aim just right to knock down all the cups. Some players take their time, while others rush through the game in an attempt to get all the cups down in under a minute.

The final game of the night is "Stack Attack," where the players have to stack six cans in a pyramid shape and then take them back down again.
