About the game

What you do in a play session

Raging Bulls is a solo game that blends dice rolling, line drawing, and a dash of "push your luck" in a Print & Play format that fits right in your pocket. Released in 2017, the designer won the PnP Solitaire contest with this 20‑to‑30‑minute challenge that can be played anywhere, as long as you have three dice, paper, a pen, and something to draw straight lines. The goal is to fence the randomly placed bulls in a field, using dice‑determined start and end points to carefully plan fence placement and maximize points while avoiding losing lives (mallets). The game features four increasingly difficult fields, keeping tension high and the pace brisk. The main component is the printable game sheet, but a low‑ink black version is available for a touch of elegance. Raging Bulls is ideal for those who enjoy quick logic puzzles, strategic short‑term play, and a touch of risk without a heavy time or component investment. If you love paper‑and‑dice games that demand planning and a hint of luck, this title will surprise you with its simplicity and depth.
