How to Play
In Clever Cubed!, players take turns rolling dice and selecting them to fill in sections on their score sheets. The goal is to maximize your points by creating the best combinations of dice rolls. Here’s a brief overview of the gameplay:
- Roll the Dice: On your turn, roll all six dice. Each die is associated with a different color and score sheet section.
- Choose Your Dice: Select one die and mark the corresponding section on your score sheet. Any dice with lower values than the selected die are set aside for opponents to potentially use on their turn.
- Score Combos: Use your chosen dice to fill in sections of your score sheet. Each section has its own rules and scoring methods, allowing for various strategies and point combinations.
- Chain Reactions: Clever use of dice can trigger combos that allow you to mark additional sections or earn bonus points. Planning ahead and setting up chain reactions is key to achieving high scores.
- End of Game: The game ends after a set number of rounds. Players tally their points from each section of the score sheet, and the highest score wins!
The clever dice-selection mechanic means that your choices not only affect your score but also influence what dice are available to other players. This interactivity adds a layer of strategy and competition to every game.
