About this game

Roll four dice, pair them into two sums, and advance up the corresponding columns. Simple, right? The catch: you can keep rolling, but if none of your pairs match your three active columns, you lose all progress for the turn. Every roll is a miniature negotiation with fate, and the probability curve means some columns are marathons while others are sprints. Forty-plus years old and still the purest push-your-luck game ever designed.
