Saikoro no Are (2015)

User summary:
The publisher refers to サイコロのアレ (Saikoro no Are) as 'That Dice Game' (an ironic joke).

Saikoro no Are is a mind game that uses dice, but players are not allowed to roll any die.

Active player's goal is to earn points by making a specific hand, such as three of a kind or four dice in sequence, with six dice. Non-active players' goal is to prevent the active player from making a hand by correctly specifying what number the active player chooses.

For each die, do the following actions:
1)The active player chooses a number and places a die to show that number. This action can be performed secretly or publicly.

2)All non-active player guesses what number the active player chooses, and place a die to show that number secretly.

3)Then, the active player may spend two victory points to change the number chosen.

4)Finally, all players reveal their dice. If the active player's chosen number equals any non-active player's, the attempt fails and that non-active player gains victory points.

Once the active player has failed a number of times equal to the number of non-active players, that player's turn is terminated with no victory points.

Otherwise, when the sixth attempt is finished, the active player gains victory points according to the hand made with the six dice. After each player has taken their turn being the active player, the highest scorer wins the game.

Any conversations, including bluffing, are encouraged during the game. The rules of the game are simple, but free conversation makes the game intriguing and exciting. You'll never know the strange feeling until you play.
