BOX DICE INTSTRUCTIONS
The object of Box Dice is to remove all 24 boxes from the grid. This is
accomplished by rolling the dice and using the resultant total, of both
die, to find a match inside one of the boxes on the grid.
You receive one (1) point for every box removed from the grid. You must
remove a minimum number of boxes (Sysop defineable) to receive the point
total. If the game ends, and you have removed less than the minimum boxes,
you lose points (exact number defineable by Sysop).
ALL points lost by any player, including those playing the game on another
node at the same time, will have their lost points added to the "POOL". The
updating of the "POOL" points display is done REAL-TIME (ie: it will be
reflected on your screen as soon as another player loses points). You will
win the "POOL" points if you remove all the boxes in 3 columns or more. The
minimum number of points in the "POOL" will be 500.
If you remove all the boxes in a column, you receive bonus points equal
to the amount indicated at the base of the column.
If you (Q)uit the game, you lose points (exact number defineable by Sysop),
same value you lose when you do not remove the minimum number of boxes.
If you roll a double (2 dice the same), you accumulate "Xtra Rolls" for
each double. These "Xtra Rolls" come into play when you have rolled the
dice and there is no match found on the grid. The computer will sense
that automatically and if you have any "Xtra Rolls", it will automatically
roll the dice again or you can manuall roll the dice (option presented when
game starts). The Re-rolling of the dice will continue until either
a valid combination is rolled or you run out of "Xtra Rolls".
If all boxes are removed, you will receive a bonus of 100 points. This is
in addition to the points already accumulated.
This may look easy but does require some strategy and of course LUCK!
FAIR WARNING: This game is addictive and FRUSTRATING !!!!
