Dice Town*

Dice Town is a lively game where players step into the wild west with five poker dice and eight dollars in hand. Each turn, you'll assemble a poker hand from your dice rolls, vying for control of various key locations in Dice Town, each offering unique actions.

Gameplay Overview

• Dice Rolling: Shake your cup and keep one die aside, then repeat the process until all five dice are on the table. You can choose to keep more dice by paying one dollar per additional die.

Special Features

• Nines: Compete in the gold mine; the player with the most 9's can claim one nugget for each nine rolled.
• Tens: Head to the bank and be the player with the most 10's to rob it, taking all the bills, which translate to victory points at the game's end.
• Jacks: In the general store, collect cards equal to the number of J's rolled, keeping one. These cards offer points, special actions, or even the ability to steal from opponents.
• Queens: Accumulate the most Q's to win favor with the girls and pilfer from an opponent by taking and keeping cards equal to the number of Q's rolled.
• Kings: Becoming the sheriff by having the most K's grants influence in resolving ties and can be swayed with nuggets, cards, or money.
• Aces/Poker hand: At the town hall, aim for the best poker hand to secure property claims, each worth victory points. Aces in your hand allow you to draw additional cards.
• Doc Badluck: If you're out of luck for a turn, visit Doc Badluck for various options, including property protection, card acquisition, collecting money from others, or gaining nuggets.

Points are tallied, including nuggets, money, sheriff status, and the value of general store and property cards. Dice Town offers a blend of strategy and luck, making every roll of the dice a thrilling adventure in the Old West.
