Also included is a set of tacks, each bearing indicia corresponding to indicia on one of said disc playing pieces. Additionally, included are turn pieces to remind a player of lost turns, up pieces and down pieces to remind the player of the direction of train movement along the board. The game can accommodate up to thirty players. Another version of the game provides a player-board to each player, which eliminates the need for the larger gameboard. The player-board is advantageous while playing the game in close quarters or while traveling in a vehicle. Also, another version of the game provides the game on an actual roll out map.

Disclosed is a set of a plurality dice useful for playing a spelling game among multiple players and an exemplary method of playing the game. The plurality of dice is assembleable to form a dice block attractive for packaging. Typically, all of the dice are cube shaped and of the same dimensions. Each die of the set has each of its faces labeled with a character set consisting of one or more letters of the alphabet. The manner of play can be varied by altering the total number of individual dice in the dice set used for play, for example from 125 dice to 100 dice, by adding or removing dice specifically color-coded for that purpose. Thus the manner of play can be adjusted to alter the difficulty of play or the total time of play.

One embodiment of a plurality of dice with markings such that when the primary die is rolled a user either lands on a randomized result within the predetermined probability distribution or is directed to roll a secondary die which either provides a result or directs the user to roll a tertiary die. In the embodiments discussed here the final result is achieved on the first roll over 90% of the time. The embodiments described and shown are capable of representing complex distributions that include highly improbable outcomes, providing users with the convenient alternative of simply reading the result rather than performing comparative and mathematical operations on the results of multiple dice rolls.

A board game of strategy in which a plurality of player markers are strategically moved along a plurality of concentric paths along the board and where a plurality of colored interconnecting members are located between the plurality of marker positions to create a plurality of continuous paths of connecting members. Each player selects a plurality of identically colored markers, placing the plurality of identically colored markers on successive marker positions along the plurality of continuous paths. A colored dice is selected corresponding to at least one of the continuous paths of the same colored interconnecting members, the player choosing a path that includes a vacant marker position at the end of the path. The dice is rolled and one of the plurality of identically colored markers is moved the number of spaces indicated on the dice with the hope of landing on a vacant marker position. If the marker does not land on a vacant marker position the marker is removed off the game board.

A dice game system includes a plurality of cups, a set of dice, a cover configured to secure the set of dice within the plurality of cups, and a tag included with at least one of the plurality of cups, the set of dice, and the cover, the tag being connected to a digital component that provides digital dice game information. The digital component is configured to perform operations including prompting a user to select a game type, providing, if the selected game type is non-customizable, a ruleset and a scoresheet to the user, prompting the user, if the selected game type is customizable, to game characteristics in a menu of options included with the digital component, receiving the game characteristics from the user via the menu of options, and generating a ruleset in response to the selected customizable game type and the game characteristics entered by the user.
