Ligretto Dice Edition Fast-Paced Card Game

Description

The game transfers Ligretto’s idea of simultaneous play to a simple dice game.
– Ligretto consists of 24 dice in for colors (6 each in red, yellow, green and blue), 6 dice cups, a cloth bag and a game board to place the dice on (with a columns in each colour and rows numbered from 1 to 6).
– At the beginning of each round, the players draw an equal number of dice from the cloth bag depending on the number of players.
– Then they roll their dice simultaneously and try to place their dice on the placement board as fast as possible.
– Of course, dice may only be placed in the column of the corresponding color and they have to be placed in ascending order (e.g. the 3 may only be placed when the 1 and 2 are already in place).
– At any time, a player may reroll ALL his unplaced dice.
– As soon as one player gets rid of all his dice, play stops.
– For each of his unplaced dice, each player gets minus one point.
– In addition, the player who finished first positively scores the sum of all unplaced dice.
– The game is played in several rounds.
