About the game

What you do in a play session

Gather 'round for Tumblin' Dice, a dexterity game that will test your aim and luck! The concept is straightforward: each player gets four colored dice and, on their turn, must find a way to send one down a stepped surface with scoring areas. You can slide it carefully, roll it, or give it a precise flick.

The trick is that the die will land in one of the zones, and each zone has a multiplier: 1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x. The die's final score is its rolled value multiplied by the zone where it landed. Watch out for the 0x zone, where the die is immediately removed from play! Some versions even include a -1x zone for extra excitement.

The game proceeds for four full rounds, with everyone sending their four dice down the track. At the end, the player with the highest total score wins. It's a super accessible game, perfect for playing with family, friends, or even for some solo sessions. Fun is guaranteed for those who enjoy a physical challenge and a bit of luck!
