In this dice game for 2-4 players, aged 10 and up, you'll need a good dose of luck and strategy to collect cards and rack up victory points. Each round revolves around rolling dice and trying to form the right combinations to secure your cards. But beware! The game isn't just about luck, and other players, or even the dreaded 'Death' (yes, she shows up here!), might try to snatch your achievements before they're safe. Additionally, special cards, some that give you a helping hand and others that bring fun chaos (including the infamous 'poodle of death'), can change the course of the game at any moment. With quick games lasting around 30 minutes, Nichtlustig is perfect for those who enjoy a light game with a touch of dark humor and the unpredictability of dice. It's a great choice to unwind and have a good laugh, even when Death is lurking! ## FAQ ### How many players can participate?
