This is a Spanish game. It appears in a marketing idea for a popular chocolate bar, there's no more context than what appears below except that it is in the "Fun for Kids" section...anybody heard of it?

Leave it as it is: it's the name of a game. There is a computer game of this name, but this won't be the same. I suspect it's more like "Jenga" which I think is also known as "topple".

Ah, not "Topple", that's another game. Careful with those trademarks! Por cierto, veo que Topple se vende como "Juego de Equilibrio" en español.

Comment: "Thanks a lot. I thought it might be something that we have the equivalent of in English, but apparently not. I asked all my Spanish friends and nobody had ever heard of it. I left it as it was with a note to the client. Thanks again!"

shaker / shaky / tremble/r
Tremble or Tremble could be a good name for it if you must translate it, since "tembleque" means a shivery (trembling), shaking person or thing.

Depends on how the game is played I suppose...
