Guide to play DiceKinz

[Lion King]

DiceKinz Guide

Objective:

Use your dice to get around the track and cross the finish line before your opponent.

There are 2 match options
• 1 Player
• Invite Friend



Preparation



You can choose your dice here. Click “Dice Collection”.
Check my other thread "DiceKinz Guide for Collectiong Dice" to see which dice will be good to use.



How to play:

There are 3 phases (Roll, Jostle, Run) in each turn.



In this phase, your 6 dice will rolled.
If you get a REST die, you will have one less die to play during this turn.






LOCK


You can place a die and keep it to use for another turn. Once the die is locked you cannot use it in this turn but it is safe so the opponent cannot knock it out.

On your turn, you place your die in the blue Action box




Face die is the side 1 of every dice and is the best die which can knock off any die.

Fly die can be placed as Action anytime and it will make your pet move forward by the number of spaces on the die.

Growth die will increase all of your action and defense dice in value

Blowback die will move your opponent pet backwards by 2 spaces.

Scare die will scare opponent die away but may get a free die back.

Trip die can knock off opponent’s Run die.

Stumble die will reduce all of opponent's Run by 1.

Recover die will bring your die which was defeated by the opponent or used.

Wild die can be turned into Run, Scare, Trip, or Dodge die of your choice.

[Lion King]

What you can place in the Target box will be different, depending on your Action die.






Block die can be used to avoid Face die and stop Fly

Dodge die can be used to avoid Trip, Scare and Blowback of equal or lesser value


Balance die can be used to avoid Stumble and Blowback




When both parties PASS, RUN phase starts.





Your pet will go forward the number of spaces on total value of the RUN die left over in your set.


If you have any dodge dice left at the end of the Jostle Phase your pet will be given 1 extra move forward in the Run Phase.


Thanks to LordRaidor for telling me about combining two trips together.

It should also be worth noting that you can "combine" two smaller trip dice together (link here) for greater effect. ...Not frequently used, but it is always an option...

Anyway, thanx for compiling the screenshots and assembling such a nifty resource.

I have tried to play this game several times in the past, and muddled through by sheer accident... your guide helped clear up many of my questions. Thanks for sharing all of your efforts. Rep point to you.

Nice guide, thank-you for it, I never knew what locking a dice did before!

Nice guide! I know how to play this game, but why not post pictures of in-game play? It would help people out.

I asked if this could be made into a sticky. It is the best explanation I have seen so far Rated, repped and subscribed to. Well done!

Thank, Lion King, for all your work here. I've been playing with DiceKinz and have collected some of the PetPaks. But I've been too afraid to start using them. Maybe with your help I'll give it a try. Reps to you for all your work. Also rated and subscribed. Even going to pass your thread along.
