- Each player takes a pen and score sheet
- Randomly choose a start player, who gets the 6 dice
The game is played over 4 (4 players), 5 (3 players), or 6 (1 and 2 player) rounds. At the start of the first 4 rounds, each player gets 1 bonus, as shown on the round tracker on the score sheet (players choose 1 of the 2 options in round 4).
- The score sheet has 5 colored areas. For each die, a player will mark 1 field or write 1 number in 1 space.
- 3 areas (green, orange, and purple) show an arrow on the left. You will start entering numbers at the left of these lines and proceed right, in order without skipping spaces.
- In the 2 areas without numbers (yellow and blue), you can enter an appropriate number no matter where it is. The white die is wild and can either be used as a yellow, green, orange, or purple die or can be combined with the blue die to create a sum for the blue area.
The game ends after the last active player has finished their last turn in the last round and after the passive players have all taken their actions for this turn.
A player will then record the scores for each player in each colored area. Earned foxes will be scored for each player. A player's foxes are each worth that player's lowest scoring area.
Points are summed, and the player with the highest total wins. If there is a tie, the player with the highest score in an individual area breaks the tie. If no winner can still be determined, the victory is shared.
