This is a dice driven board game (Paper-and-write), and some people also classify them as roll-and-write. In this type of game, players will have a record sheet to fill in the results from the dice points. It is actually a very old game mechanism. The earliest work generally considered to “Yahtzee” launched in 1956. Although new works have released intermittently over the years, it has been sluggish for a long time. Until this game appeared. This game, which launched in 2018, has achieved amazing success. And it has attracted a large number of followers since then. It has injected new vitality into an old type.
Dice Driven Board Game Basic Rules
In this game, players will throw three dice in each round and record the three dice points. Each type of dice will have different scoring methods and filling rules. For example, purple, after the player chooses the purple dice, he can fill in the number equal to the purple dice point on the grid from left to right. But the new number filled in must be greater than the number filled in the previous grid. Unless the previous grid filled in 6. Purple special rewards can obtained by filling in numbers under the corresponding grid. The score of this area is equal to the sum of the numbers you fill in. The other four areas also have their own different rules. Therefore, it is still necessary to consider when playing.
Dice Board Game Playing Method
The player’s dice selection in each round is also quite particular. The first time, all six dice thrown. Choose a dice and put it in the consumption area in the upper left corner. Then record the result on paper. After that, the player puts all dice with points lower than the selected dice into the discard area. Throw the remaining dice again and choose. Then do it a third time. Of course, in some special cases, three choices may not possible. For example, the filling conditions of any optional dice cannot be met. Then the round can only ended early. Choosing a dice with a high point requires sacrificing a certain amount of selection space. The higher the points of some dice, the better, and it also needs to be balanced with the points of some dice. Various trade-offs are worth pondering. And how to get the highest score requires in-depth thinking about probability and benefits. It is much more complicated than many of his predecessors. Of course, it is still relatively light compared to other board games. Maybe this is why he stands out.

Another feature of the dice driven board game is the refreshing linkage. There are many bonus actions in the game. Players can mark another space immediately after marking a grid. Or players can mark one more time at the end of the round. Although it is not reflected in the early stage of the game. But a reasonable layout can often play a large section of linkage in a single round in the later stage. The score is greatly prompted. Although it is not possible to win every time through it. But the refreshing feeling obtained from it is unparalleled. I believe that many players have similar experiences. Because of this reason, players who are new to the game are often addicted to it. It is difficult to extricate themselves.
