Football Highlights: The Dice Game is a standalone expansion for Baseball Highlights: The Dice Game and is played with a set of 11 Play dice, 6 Power dice, 1 Defense die, a game board, and a game sheet for each player. Each round the active player will roll the Play dice and any Power dice they have unlocked to place them each of the matching 6 board areas. Then, the active player will select one of these 6 areas and will use the dice from that area to cross off boxes in the matching track on their player game sheet. Once they are done, the inactive players select 1 die from 2 different areas to cross off 2 boxes in the matching tracks on their game sheets. Marking off boxes in the 6 tracks (and the bonus Field Goal, Breakaway Run, and Yards After Catch tracks) will advance your Yardage marker down the field. Whenever you advance your Yardage marker into the End Zone you score a 7-point touchdown. You can also choose to kick a 3-point Field Goal anytime you are within Field Goal kicking range. The player who scores the most points by the end of the game wins. But be careful, the result on the Defense die may cost you yardage on your runs or passes! Football Highlights: The Dice Game is for 1 to 4 players ages 8 and up. Average game length is 20 minutes with mostly simultaneous play. -description from publisher
