well you take the cuponk cup and the back board and the put it in its little patch and then put the cup through the hole and then pull up its that simple.
Yes you can play Cuponk without a set because the object of the
game is to get the ball in the cup so you could use a ping-pong
ball and a regular plastic cup and it would still work. But on a
Cuponk set it has a cup that makes sounds and noises but i think
they are annoying
