Memo Dice
Images under cups
Six-sided dice are used for a memo game; the dice do not show pips, but various images - nine dice carry a total of 54 different images, depicted on a red, blue or black background. 10 cups come in four colors - there are three red, three blue, three black and one golden cup. All players put their marker on the first case of the scoring track.
In turn, the active player rolls one of the available dice, nine at the beginning of the round - and, after a brief time for memorizing, covers it with a cup of the background color of the die. Cups covering dice are arranged in a row from left to right. If no corresponding cup is available anymore or if you rolled the last die, you use the golden cup. The player who used the golden cup begins the guessing and uncovering of images. You start with the leftmost cup and name the image it covers. You reveal the die, control the image and receive the cup, if you named the image correctly. Then you can continue with the next cup in the row. If you made a mistake, you hand the cup to the next player, who then continues play by naming the image under the next cup. When all cups are given out, you move your marker on the scoring track one step for each colored cup and two steps for the golden cup. If you cross the 20 mark or are furthest ahead, if several players cross 20 in the same round, you win.
Memo Dice is a simple, cute and thrilling game, in which images are easily distinguished. The penalty for a mistake is rather high, minimum one step, that is, one point for your neighbor. If you can form suitable memo sentences in your mind, you will have an advantage.
