Objective of the Game

The winner is the player with the most money after four rounds.

Setup

Place the 6 casinos next to each other in the middle of the table in die value order. Shuffle the 54 banknotes and place them in a face-down pile next to the casinos. Afterwards, place banknotes above the casinos. Keep adding banknotes to a casino until the total value is at least $50,000. Should multiple banknotes have been added to a casino, then arrange the notes such that all of their values are visible. Give each player the 8 dice. It is best if each player has different colored dice. Give the oldest player the start player card.

Gameplay

The game is played out over four rounds, each of which is made up of each player getting around four or five dice rolling turns. The oldest player begins (start player card), after which play continues in clockwise direction. On your turn, roll all of the dice you have left (all 8 to start the round, fewer and fewer as the round goes on). Then, you must choose exactly one of the numbers rolled and add all of those dice to the matching-numbered casino. It doesn't matter if you or another player has already added dice to the casino or not. It is then the next player's turn to roll and place, etc. until all players have placed all of their dice. Example: Benno rolls (midway through a round) four 3's and a 5. He chooses the four 3s and adds all of them to the "3 moon" casino (he could not have chosen to add only one, two or three of the 3s!). On his next turn, Benno will simply roll and then add his last die to the appropriate casino. If you are out of dice, then you pass for the rest of the round. (So it is possible that only one player has any dice left and thus gets to take multiple turns in a row toward the end of a round). Once the last player has added his final dice to a casino, then the casinos pay out: First, check each casino to see if two or more players have the same number of dice there. Wherever this is the case, each of the affected players return all of their affected dice back to their supplies. Example 1: Anna added 5 dice to the "1 moon" casino; Benno and Carla added 3 each and Denny added 1. Benno and Carla both take their 3 dice back. Example 2: Anna and Carla both added 2 dice to the "4 moon" casino while Benno and Denny each added 1: All players take their dice back. Afterward it is time to distribute the banknotes from the first casino. The player who added the most dice to the casino takes all of his dice back from this casino (returning them to his supply) and receives the highest-value banknote from it. Any remaining banknotes are distributed to the remaining players in order of descending number of dice. Should there not be enough banknotes for everyone, then the remaining players miss out. They take their dice back and receive nothing. Should there be any banknotes left on the casino after distribution, then take the leftover notes and place them, face down, beneath the pile. Pay out the other five casinos in the same manner. Any money that players have won gets placed in front of them, face down. The Next Round Resupply the six casinos with banknotes so that they once again have at least $50,000 on them (see game setup). The player to the left of the previous start player receives the start player card and starts the next round ... End of the Game The game ends after four rounds and the players count their money. The player with the most money is the winner. In the event of a tie, then the winner is the player with the most banknotes. If there is still a tie then there are multiple winners. Variant (2 to 4 players) All previous rules are in effect with the following exceptions: At the start of each round, players receive, in addition to the 8 dice in their color, additional dice in a neutral, unused, color (we recommend white): With 2 players, each player receives 4 white dice (= 12 total) With 3 or 4 players each player receives 2 white dice (= 10 total) (In a three player game, the two leftover white dice get rolled by the start player at the start of the round and placed accordingly). On your turn, you must roll your neutral dice along with those of your own color and then place them just as you would your own. At the end of a round, the neutral dice are scored as if they belonged to an additional (imaginary) player. Any money that this ,player' wins gets added to the bottom of the pile.
