Encore!

Cross off connected boxes, finish columns first, and quietly steal the dice everyone needed.

A roll-and-write on a colourful grid: a colour die and a number die tell you which boxes you may cross off, and every box you mark has to touch one you already have. The start player gets to look at the table first and pull two dice out of the pool before everyone else chooses. Points come from being the first to finish a column or a whole colour.

Who it's for

Groups who like ticking boxes and want a game that scales to six without slowing down. Also a solid solo option on the same sheet.

Not for you if…

You are mostly staring at your own sheet, so if you want interaction beyond one dice-removal decision, this will feel thin. The sheets are consumable, and the grid pattern gets familiar after a dozen plays.

Vibe's take

Everyone marks their sheet at the same time, so it moves fast and stays chatty. The dice-removal choice adds a small mean streak to what otherwise looks like solitaire.
