Reno

Roll dice to claim cards.

Players: 3-5.
Requires dice in multiple colors.
Game by Rüdiger Dorn.

Works fine. Made a few tweaks and need to replay.

  • Each player gets 8 dice of their color and 2 neutral dice.
  • Deal Out 6 stacks of cards on the table:
    • Deal cards to a stack until the cards add up to at least 10 in total.
    • Arrange each stack from highest to lowest.
  • Each turn:
    • Roll all dice in your pool.
    • Choose a number you rolled.
    • All your dice which rolled that number are played to the cooresponding stack.
  • Once all dice are played out:
    • For each stack, the player with the most dice takes the highest card.
    • The player with the second-most takes the second highest, etc.
    • Ties cancel each other out.
    • The neutral color can win cards and tie with players.
  • After four rounds, score:
    • J, Q, and K are worth 11, 12, and 13, respectively.
    • A are worth 1 point but are placed at the top of stacks.
    • All other cards are worth their face value.
