Overview
Soccer Dice is a game for two players playing for a pre-determined period of time and the winner being the one who has scored the most goals when time is called. Alternatively, it can be played to a set number of goals. The toss of a coin decides who starts first.
Turn Order
Player one throws the dice individually in the following sequence: Red, Black, Blue, Yellow and Green unless otherwise instructed by a throw of the dice.
Ending a Turn
If a player throws up "Tackled and Lost" on any dice then his turn ends and the opposing player begins his turn on Red.
Likewise, if he throws "Offside" on the Yellow dice, or "Saved," "Over-bar" or "Wide" on the Green dice, then his turn is over and the opposing player begins his turn.
The Shooting Dice
The Green dice is the shooting dice and the only dice that can be thrown to score a goal. Therefore, if a player throws a "Shoot," "Penalty," "Long shot at goal" or "Header at goal" on any of the other dice, then he moves directly on to the Green dice and tries his luck at scoring.
Fouls and Free Shots
Finally, on the Blue dice, one of the sides reads "Opponents Yellow card shown." When a player throws this, it means that he has been badly fouled and the player in possession has a free shot at goal with the Green dice.
Variations
Great excitement can be had by developing your own League or Cup Competitions.
