21 dice - numbers, images, letters …

 

In this sequel to WÜRFELmania! you use 21 dice for actions in three areas of the board: Quizville, Knobelfeld and Actionland. You take a card corresponding to the location of your marker on the board and try to master the task stated on the card. For instance: Start the timer and draw the term of the color rolled, for instance movie film. Or: Start the timer and roll the dice-dice and the number dice until the timer runs out to achieve the same number on the number die and the inner die of the dice-dice. Or: Start the timer, turn on the spot till it runs out, start it again and stack all six letter dice.

If you master the respective task you move your marker forward, if you fail, you remain in place or move backwards. In Quizville the color die determines the category; in Knobelfeld you must comply with dice tasks plus an additional task, for instance name term in accordance with a letter you rolled; finally, Action land can confront you with anything from drawing terms to stacking dice to doing somersaults. On a Juhu spot you may choose your next task and more than six players can form teams. If you are the first to master the Master Task in the finish area you win the game. The master task comes from a category chosen by your fellow players; should this task then demand the participation of all players you must be among the winners of the task to win the game.

A standard party game in which the ideas for questions and task are cute, witty and cover a wide range of topics; the use of different kinds of dice makes for a well-working game and offers a nice sequel to WÜRFELmania as well as a lot of fun.
