After a simple game setup, Dice Manor takes place over four rounds during these phases:
- Bidding – Players take turns rolling dice and allocating them among bidding spaces for room pieces, advertising spots and spaces on their existing manor for home tours as they build it each round. Inspiration tokens are collected that are used to add or subtract dice values and reroll any number of dice.
- Collection – Rewards in the form of rooms to add to their manor, prestige points from advertising as well as manor tours are accumulated by each player.
- Building – Players add any rooms to their manor that they won in the bidding phase.
- Reset for the next round.
At the end of the game, there is a final grand tour during which players use their dice to place in adjoining rooms in their manor. If the manor has been built strategically, room flow will be conducive to earning the most prestige points. Additional points are awarded for having the most rooms in any one color, the most diverse room types, the largest manor and leftover inspiration tokens. The person with the most points wins!
