Example GamePlay:

Each player has a Dycal Pad and Pencil. First, the seven polyhedral Dycal dice are thrown by one player and all players write down there values on their pads. In this example, we will say the Seven Dycal dice are: 14, 12, 6, 5, 4, 2 and the final dice shows 1, 2, 4. You can choose which number to use from the final dice as you play. Each player writes down the Dycal dice on their Dycal pad.

Next, the target dice are thrown. These are traditional dice. In this example, the dice landed showing 5, 5, 2. This would be read as five hundred and fifty- two.

When all players have written the target onto their pads the one-minute timer is turned and play begins.

I would write on my pad:

5 x 4 = 20
20 x 2 = 40
40 x 14 = 560
560 - 6 - 2 = 552

I would get a point for getting the target number within the minute timer. Any other player that also calculated 552 would also get a point. If no player gets the target number the point goes to the closest player. All players must write out their workings or forfeit the round.

Fun and addictive... be prepared to pause the game when a player is convinced they can get the target and won't move on until they try!
