Fun doesn't get any more rapid-fire than Flash, a dice game in which players race to complete 8 different challenges. Each challenge consists of a specific dice combination (six-of-a-kind, 3 pairs, all odds, . . .). Players roll and re-roll, each time putting aside the dice whose results they want to keep and rerolling the rest, until they've achieved the desired result. One side of each die displays a flash symbol (lightning bolt), which is wild and can represent any number. Being good at Flash isn't just about who can roll the fastest. It's about how quickly and accurately you can assess the results of your roll and make a good decision about what to keep before launching the dice through the air again. This requires focus, a quick mind, and fast hands. As players complete a challenge, they grab the highest value scoring chip still available on the table, so that each player's score per challenge is based on the order in which he or she finished relative to the other players. Everyone's score is written on the special score pad before moving on to the next challenge. Once all the challenges have been completed, the player with the highest total wins. Two exciting game variations keep things extra-lively. For 2 to 6 players. Includes 36 Dice (6 colors), 6 Scoring Chips, Scoring Pad, Pencil, and Travel Bag.
