Where to put 34?

One of the nice, practical tins from Schmidt Spiele offers us yet another nice game in the take-me-along range, a quick little game for in-between and on the road, a dice game in which all play simultaneously.

Each player is given a score sheet which shows five columns, one for each of five symbols on the die – Hand, Star, House, Tree and Crescent Moon. The sixth symbol on the die does not have a column, the red lightning symbol is a joker for all of the other symbols. Aim of the game is to be first to enter 12 numbers in ascending order into one of the columns.

At the start each player secretly enters the numbers 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 into any case in any of the columns, one number into each of the columns. Even at that point you should remember the necessity of ascending number values. The active player names a number in the range between 1 and 100 and rolls the die; the resulting symbol and the number are now valid for all players. If one of the five symbols was rolled you enter the number into the corresponding column, again anywhere in the column, albeit adhering to the ascending value rule. When the joker symbol was rolled, you can choose the column in which you want to enter the number. If you cannot enter the number, bad luck, you must pass. Whoever is first to fill all cases of a column in the correct order, wins the game.

As I have said at the start, a quick cute and quite fetching game, a solitaire game for each player, because everyone of course names a number that is good for himself and if you copy your neighbor you will at best achieve a tie in winning. A wonderful game to put into your luggage for your holidays.
