The rules

Setup

Gather three 6-sided dice, a pen, and a second player. One player will write on the pink circles, and one player will write on the blue diamonds. Decide by whatever means you like who’s going first.

What a turn looks like

The active player rolls all three dice, then picks any two of them and adds them together. They write that number into one of their shapes, then they draw lines to connect it to as many adjacent numbers as possible, as long as:

You can draw up to 4 lines around the number you wrote inYou can't cross a line that your opponent has already drawnConnected shapes must increase upwards and from left to right

Winning the game

At the end of their turn, if the pink circle player has connected the left and right edges of the board, they win. Similarly, if the blue diamond player has connected the top and bottom edges of the board at the end of their turn, they win.

If all of the spaces get filled in without either player winning, the game is a draw.
