Extra!

MArk numbers, score rows

Extra is title Nr. 3 in the new Roll & Play series. The dice are rolled and each player on his own combines four of them into two pairs, adds the values of each pair and crosses out the resulting sum on his block, the 5^th is noted extra. Each die in the roll can only be used once. All in all you can note down 3 different extra numbers and decide for each each roll whether to mark again a number already noted or to note a new extra number. If the roll contains one of your extra numbers you must mark it if possible. If you must mark the last place in the column of an extra number, your game ends. It is allowed to make up numbers from the dice that cannot be marked anymore because the row is already full; this might allow you to avoid marking an extra number. When all players have finished their game due to marking the last spot in a column of an extra number, you score all rows:  Rows where your markings reached the positive area score the multiplyer times the row number, rows that have been marked only in the negative area score-200 each, rows that were not marked score 0. The player with the highest total wins. If none of the players scores positive, the player with the fewest number of negative points wins.

The solo variant is played by the same rules, you try to top your own best score, if you score negative the game is deemed to be lost.

Extra! offers a quick, simple dice game without any interaction, copying your neighbor only gives you the same score.. Some tactics is possible in combining the dice, as you have a choice when more than one extra number is in the roll.
