Cheery Chimp

A dice duel on two 3×3 boards. Drop dice into your columns to build big combos — and knock the same numbers off your opponent's board. When one board fills up, the higher total wins.

The goal

You and your opponent each have a board of 3 columns, 3 dice tall. Take turns rolling one die and placing it in one of your columns. The moment either board is full, the game ends and the higher total score wins.

A turn, step by step

1. A die is rolled for you.

2. Drop it into any of your columns that isn't full.

3. Matching numbers in a column multiply — and your die destroys the opponent's matching dice in the facing column.

Combos — matching dice multiply

Within one column, a number that appears n times scores its value × n². Stacking the same number is the whole game:

So two of a number is worth 4× a single, and three is worth 9× — three 6s in a column is a massive 54 points. Mixed columns just add up (4 · 1 · 4 = 17).

Destroy — attack their board

When you place a die, it wipes out every one of the opponent's dice of that value in the facing column (the column lined up opposite yours). Undo their combo before it grows:

Placing your 6 opposite their two 6s destroys both — their column drops from 24 to 0, and your 6 starts a combo of your own.

Winning

As soon as one board is completely full, add up every column on both boards. Highest total wins; a tie is a shared win.
