Wizard Würfelspiel

predict dice roll results

 

Wizard Kartenspiel is renowned for predicting the number of your tricks.. In Wizard Würfelspiel you predict dice results.

The active player is Seer of the round and has seven dice, showing one symbol for each of four colors - blue for humans, red for dwarves, green for elves and yellow for giants - and one symbol each for Wizard and Jester. The Seer predicts the number of a colored symbol he will roll. Then all players in turn make their own prediction, different from all previously made predictions. You cannot predict Wizards, Jesters or results already scored. If you made the highest prediction in a color different from the color chosen by the Seer, you will be Seer in the next round.

The current Seer then determines a color for the Wizard symbols in the result - he can select the color of his symbol prediction - and then rolls up to three times; each player can opt out and score the current roll - with X for a correct prediction, differences in numbers give penalty points and 0 can be entered if you decide to use the Jester score for 1 to 5 Jesters in the roll. When the Seer opts out, all players who did not yet score must score this roll. If someone marks his 9th X, all total their sheet for X and bonuses and penalty points.

In the variant with Magic cards you reveal a random Magic Card for each round which changes the rules for the current round, e.g. the first roll is done before you make a prediction.

Of course, this is somewhat less tactical than the card game, but as good and offering as much fun to play; the symbols from the card game provide flair and the Magic cards provide interesting rule modifications.
