With each roll, the player decides to keep rolling or stop and activate the dice results. However, with each additional roll, the odds of busting (getting a duplicate result) increase further and the player risks losing the progress they've made that round. When activating the dice results, the player will draw cards, steal cards from other players, and stash cards. Cards in hand may be used for their listed ability, but they count as points only when stashed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e 2–4 Players\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e15–20 Min Playing Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge: 8+\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ve7Kv5g-x8Y\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e▪️ \u003ca title=\"Games at Brain Spice\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brainspice.com.au\/collections\/games-for-kids\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore fun games for kids! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e▪️ \u003ca title=\"Games at Brain Spice\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brainspice.com.au\/collections\/tabletop-games\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore our entire range of games! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gamewright","offers":[{"title":"Ages 8+ \/ 2-4 Players","offer_id":32087765221450,"sku":"GW-GWR252","price":33.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/5549\/1146\/files\/Trash_Pandas.jpg?v=1780075554"},{"product_id":"sleeping-queens","title":"Sleeping Queens","description":"\u003ch2\u003e⭐️\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"\u003e⭐️ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eBrain Spice Top Pick!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"\u003e ⭐️\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"\u003e⭐️\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRise and Shine!
