The Active Player (player who rolled) HAS to either choose to use the number from the white dice OR you can add 1 white die with with any ONE color die and then cross that number off in that chosen color.ĭoes that make sense? Let’s try this. They can choose ANY color to do so but they do not HAVE to check off anything. Say that number out loud because all players get to choose whether they want to check off that number on their Score Sheet. Each player on their turn (is the Active Player) rolls all 6 dice and adds up the white dice. The game suggests the first person who rolls a 6 but we usually just roll to see who rolls highest. Make sure you choose wisely because you have to get 5 X’s in order to cross off that last number in the row. If you cross off the Green 6 you can ONLY cross off numbers 5,4,3, or 2 and the 2 can ONLY be crossed off if you have 5 X’s in that row. When you cross off the numbers you HAVE to go from Left to Right and cannot go back once you have crossed off a number. There are a few things to know about the game before you play though. Not really much to setup except make sure everyone has a Score Sheet and something to write with. Each X is worth a certain number of points. Score the most points by getting the most X’s. Also, if a child cannot make an X then you might not want to start them on the game until they have that part down at least a little. Then I will explain how you can adjust for younger kids but be careful of anyone who puts things in their mouths.
Here is the part where I try to explain how to play the game without confusing you too much. The box can take a bit of water damage without showing signs…so that is a bonus. They are front and back though so that gives you more. The dice are standard dice except 2 are White and the other 4 are Red, Green, Yellow and Blue and the score sheets are just a pad of paper scoresheets.
Brilliant! I love games I can take with me…I may have mentioned that. Quixx comes in the best kind of box ever. My husband and I have now included Quixx into our game nights and I take it with me for quick lunch time games. It is recommended for ages 8+ but my 5 year old son can play although he isn’t very good with the strategy part just yet. It involves 6 dice, a score sheet, a little strategy, some luck and a whole lot of fun. GameWright has made some amazingly fun games but Quixx might just be my favorite.
