Object
Be the player with the most chips when the center pile of chips is gone.
Setup and Play
- Each player gets 2 dice and 2 chips. (1 die and 2 chips if 5 or 6 players)
- Place remaining chips and dice in the center of the playing area. (If 2 players, place only 3 dice in the center playing area; the other 3 dice are not used.)
- The youngest player begins the game. On each player's turn, the player rolls all their dice and does what the dice show (see Dice Decoder). Play passes to the left.
- A player can NEVER lose their last die. A player's last die may NOT be Swiped. If all players have only one die, then no dice are Swiped on that turn. If a player has 1 die and rolls a X it still counts as a Super Swipe (See Dice Decoder).
- A player may Swipe multiple chips/dice from the same player or may divide the Swipe between players.
- If there are no dice to take from the center, the player does not win any dice from the center.
Dice Decoder
The Dice Decoder quick reference card lists the faces of the Swipe dice. Each face shows one of the following:
- Swipe a chip from any player (swirl face)
- Win a chip from the center (black disc face)
- Swipe a die from any player (stacked-dice face marked with an "S")
- Win a die from the center (dark die face)
- Lose the die to the center unless all your dice are X, then it is a Super Swipe (black X face)
Effects of the X face:
- Lose the die to the center unless all your dice are X, then it is a Super Swipe; Keep your dice, get one die from each player, then take an extra turn.
- If a player has 1 die and rolls a X it still counts as a Super Swipe!
Winning the Game
When the center pile of chips is gone, the game ends. The player with the most chips wins!
- If two or more players have an equal number of chips, the player with the most dice wins.
- If two or more players have an equal number of chips and dice, the players have a "roll-off." Each player is given a die. The players roll at the same time. The first player to roll X wins the game.
