Dice Squared

A solo game that requires nothing more than a few dice. The rules are simple enough to memorize , and short enough to fit on a business card . Roll 3 action dice to manipulate the dice in your 3x3 square, using the actions on the card. Get 1 point for each row, column, or diagonal that has: the same colour the same number an ordered sequence After 4 rounds, count up your score.  A score of 6 or more is considered to be a win. Play online My friend and co-designer for In Dreams, Jamie Thul, made a PICO-8 version of Dice Squared! You can play it online , or download for Windows or Mac below. Solo requires: 9 dice in 3 different colours, plus 4 additional dice. No other components required. 2-player requires: 14 dice in 3 different colours, plus 5 additional dice. No other components required. Special thanks This game came to be after Laszlo Korossy posited in the Button Shy Discord, "Are there any games that are ONLY dice, and no other components...?" Also huge thanks to Jamie Thul for making the PICO-8 port of the game! If you're looking for a game that's a bit more involved that uses the same core mechanic, check out Elementalist , my dice-based roguelike.
