Description

Have you ever thrown your bones like dice? You could try it in Scatterbones.
Scatterbones is a bone throwing and die rolling fun game for two players. Each player tries to assemble their skeleton while preventing the opponent from doing the same.

Game play:
  1. Each player throws a tombstone to determine which colour their skeleton must have - black or red. Both players can play for the same colour.
  2. Player 1 rolls their 6 skeleton parts (the bones). If a ribcage in the correct colour can be found all other parts in the same colour can be connected to it.
  3. Player 2 does the same with his bones. Both players must start with a ribcage, otherwise they have to rattle all the bones again in their next turn.
  4. Each play picks up the left bones and the die and rolls them together. If a missing part is shown on the die, it can be added to the skeleton. But there is also the colour changing side and the scatter side. Both mean the player has to start again. If the opponent already has the wanted part, the active play may choose to steal it from the opponent.
  5. The first player to finish their skeleton wins the game. So the game can be over in 2 minutes if luck is on your side.
