About Dice Race

Roll the dice, hop your pawns round the cross and race them home before anyone else does. Land on a rival to send it back to its nest, park on a star to stay safe, and team up two pawns to build a block. Climb 12 races as your rivals get cleverer and new house rules join in. There is a gentle Little Race for the youngest players, and a family game for 2-4 players, with friends or computers.
