Würfelblitz

Green dot blocks green dice

 

You do not roll dice at lightning speed, you sum up dice value at lightning speed, because the aim of the game is to be first to correctly calculate the value of a roll and thus to be first to collect three black discs.

The game features six colored special dice - yellow, orange, red, blue, green and black. On each die, one of the six values is replaced by a dot of of one of the other five dice’s color; three white dice each show six dots in the colors of the special dice. Depending on the desired degree of difficulty, you vary the number of white dice used for a game. All colored and two or three white dice are placed into the box bottom, which you then shake and tilt over onto the table.

On a signal, you reveal the roll and and all players, by themselves, add the pip values of all dice, but without the values of those colored dice whose color is visible on one of the other dice, be it a colored one or a white one. For a correct answer you earn a white disc; three white ones are swapped for a black one. A wrong answer costs you a white disc, if you have one; black discs are safe from penalties, you need not swap them back.

A variant for more experienced players turns around the rule: If a color dot appears at least twice in a roll, you must add up those values that would normally be blocked.

You can also vary the number of white discs that you need to swap for a black one, beginners can get a black one immediately or after they have given their second correct answer.

Super simple, super good and super fun to play - a fantastic reaction and calculating game for quick spotters.
