Line 37:
Take another trio and place it in the middle of the table in this confiruration:
{|
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{PL|::LPL|midnightblue|5em}}
|style="vertical-align:bottom;"|{{PL|::SPN|midnightblue|3em}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{PL|::MPR|midnightblue|5em}}
|}
<br>
This is called the House.

==Object==
Your goal is to get your trio of pyramids to exactly mirror the trio in the middle of the table.
==Rules==
*The player holding the die goes first.
*On a turn, roll the die and perform the rolled action on your trio. If you ''can'' perform the action on your trio, you ''must''. If you can't perform it on his trio, you can optionally perform it on the House. If you can't or doesn't want to affect the House, reroll.
===Actions===
There are six possible actions.
*{{PL|:AIM|black|2em}} Take a single pyramid and point it left, right, or upward. ''Notes: Pyramids in stacks are not eligible.''
*{{PL|:TIP|black|2em}} Tip over a single pyramid or a stack of pyramids. You choose whether they end up facing left or right.
*{{PL|:HOP|black|2em}} Take an upright pyramid and hop it somewhere else: on the table, on top of another stack. You may even choose to hop a pyramid onto a lying-down piece, which causes the lying-down piece to stand upright to be hopped on. A stack of pyramids can be hopped as a group if the pyramid you choose to move happens to have other pyramids on top of it at the time. They can also hop into areas that look two cramped. For instance, if your trio initially looks like the diagram below, the small is allowed to jump to the left of the group, to the right of the group, or ''in between'' the group. The other two pyramids simply move aside to accommodate it, like this:
{|style="border:1px solid black; margin:auto;"
|{{PL|::SL|blue|4em}}{{PL|::M|blue|4em}}
|→
|{{PL|::L|blue|4em}}{{PL|::S|blue|4em}}{{PL|::M|blue|4em}}
|-
|colspan="3"|small hops between<br>large and medium
|}
*{{PL|:AIM|SWAP|2em}} Make two of your pyramids switch places. They retain their orientations if possible. The case where it is not possible is when a lying-down pyramid is swapped with a pyramid that is on top of a stack. If this happens, the lying-down pyramid stands up as it goes on top of the stack, and the pyramid that was on top of the stack stays upright as it lands on the table.
*{{PL|:DIG|black|2em}} Take a lying-down pyramid and imagine it tunneling underground. It tunnels in the direction it was initially facing and comes up either between two pyramids, to the side, or ''underneath'' another pyramid (or underneath a stack of pyramids). A lying-down pyramid that is facing away from all the other pieces is not eligible to tunnel.
*{{PL|:WILD|black|2em}} Choose one of the above.

'''Treehouse''' is a [[Single stash games|single stash]] game designed by [[Andrew Looney|Andy Looney]]. The rules fit onto a [[stash]] tube and is sold as a self-contained game including a [[Treehouse die|specialized die]]. Looney Labs made Treehouse their standard-issue Icehouse product for 2006, revolutionizing how retailers sell Icehouse, as well as breaking the monochrome stash convention.
