ABSTRACT:
A dice game and board are disclosed and a lead player is determined. The lead player and all succeeding players each have a turn in each round of play. The lead player rolls eight dice in an attempt to get the greatest number of either 6's, 5's, 4's, 3's, 2's, or 1's. In any turn the lead player may roll up to five of the dice twice after the initial roll in an effort to add to the number of 6's, 5's, 4's, 3's, 2's, or 1's rolled in the first roll. A predetermined value is assigned to the result of the lead player's turn. This value may be indicated upon the game board by placing a colored marker peg at the appropriate value on the game board. Subsequent players attempt to achieve a result of a higher predetermined value than that achieved by the lead player in the same number of rolls used by the lead player. If one or more subsequent players achieve a result higher than that of the lead player, the subsequent player with the highest result becomes the lead player and begins a new round of play. The lead player's score in any round is determined by moving the lead player's colored marker to the appropriate position on the game board.
