The Garbage Game, also known as Plagarb or Pickr (in Southern regions), is the most popular entertainment in Big Utol area. The Game usually requires a game board. It could be  a flat stone, a pileus of big mushroom or any other surface). And it also needs a set of figures that players make up for themselves.
Usually the set is unique. It may include varied kinds of stones, intricately shaped branches, beads, seashells or insects. In the latter case the player should agree upon it with an insect individually to be sure that it won't leave the gameboard during the first moments of the game. In general, the figure is everything that one can find or win.
The basic principle of the game is to barter own items for the other player’s  tempting items and not to lose his/her own valuable items in process.
The game starts by scattering the items on the gameboard and this accidental combination of figures defines the whole game process.
The location of objects relative to each other could increase or reduce the power of impact of some items on the others. Certain items could act without player’s assistance, for instance, if a player unfortunately has dry leaves in his set in windy weather or if he has some capricious beetles  which could bite somebody or treat themselves with the items on the board.  An item  value is defined by each player individually. One likes bright stones, another could collect intricatly tied knots. There are also certain cases when players intentionally add some food in their sets (a slice of cheese, a piece of cake or some red-ripe berries). This action takes place in case of a long-lasting game set to make competitor forget about his pursuit of a big pearl or painted bead and only crave for food.
