Description
Visual strategy and planning come together with good ole fashioned luck of the dice in this fast paced race to fill the most state shapes with a number from the die. Sounds rather simple, doesnt it? Beware - the other players are simultaneously seeking to fill their maps. The great play challenge presented to all players is that bordering states can have only 1 number difference between them, plus you have to strategize when to change the regions of play, which states to guard, or if youre going to dupe a roll! A sturdy cardboard storage box, colorful dice in a cloth pouch, 100 game sheets, and rules for single or multi-player rounds are included. 1. ~ Deanne
