## Description
Get ready for a game that feels a lot like Tetris, but on your tabletop and with dice! In Number Drop, the goal is to be clever and fit numbers and shapes onto your grid in the right way. You'll roll 4 number dice and 1 shape die to determine what you need to draw or fill in on your grid. The objective is to create combinations of identical or consecutive numbers to score points, but watch out for penalties that can drop onto your opponents! Plus, if you want to hinder them a bit, there are 5 block tiles you can use to obstruct their space. It's a fast-paced game, perfect for those who enjoy a puzzling challenge and a bit of luck with dice rolls. You can play it solo or compete with up to 5 friends, and games only take about 20 minutes. The target is to reach 100 points, but whoever has the most when the game ends wins. It's one of those games that makes you think 'just one more turn!' due to its simplicity and escalating tension.
