Vidi

A Cake + a Road = Travel Provisions

 

Players want to find combinations of two nouns. The game comprises 18 dice with 6 different images each. One player rolls all dice, the VIDI die determines the version of the game that is played in this round: If it shows Flash, you take those dice that you use to make up your word out of the display and announce your word. The round ends when all dice have been picked up or the timer has run out. For each correct combination you move your marker one spot forward.

When the VIDI die has determined Slow Motion, the dice stay on the table and all players write down their words. One image can be used for more than one word. Combinations that have been noted by several players are crossed out, for the remaining words you move your marker forward 1 position per word.

When a word is doubted, players decide together if it is valid or not. If your marker ends its move on a VIDI spot you can decide whether the next round is a Flash or a Slow Motion round. If you end up on a +10 spot, you may look at the dice for 10 seconds longer in the next Slow Motion round. If you end up on the x you must pass up the next round. The first player to reach the finish with his marker wins.

If two players reach the finish at the same time, they play a last Flash round to decide the winner, who wins this round has won the game.

A fun game and a nice vocabulary training, it is astonishing what can be made up from 18 images. If you do not have to take them literally you can make up even more words! Imagination, repartee, puns and a little leeway in interpretation will yield lots of fun.
