How To
Play - Sum Swamp - Game Rules
Each player chooses a game
piece and places it on start. Players roll a number die and the player
with the highest number goes first.
The first player rolls all 3
dice and creates a number sentence by placing the
highest
number die first, the
operation die second, and the smallest number die
last.
The player then adds or
subtracts the numbers, and moves ahead the sum or difference. For
example, if a player rolls 3 + 2, he/she moves ahead 5 spaces.
If a player rolls a
combination that equals 0 (5 – 5 = 0), he/she does not move.
Then it is the next player’s
turn.
The first player to reach
the finish space is the winner!
(Note: players do not need
to roll the exact number to reach the finish space.)
“Evens”or
“Odds”:
If a player lands on one of
these spaces, he/she rolls one die.
If a player rolls an “even”
or “odd” number as indicated on the game board, he/she moves ahead that
number of spaces. If an even/odd number is not rolled, the player must
wait until his/her next turn and try again!
Number Space:
If a player lands on a
number space, he/she rolls the operation die. If the player rolls a +,
he/she moves ahead the number indicated on the space. If the player
rolls a –, he/she moves back that number.
“Short
Cut”:
If a player lands on one of
these spaces, he/she follows the arrow as indicated on the board.
“Endless Loop”: All players
enter the loop as the arrow on the board indicates.
Players continue moving
counterclockwise around the loop. If a player lands on the space marked
“exit,” he/she can exit the loop on his/her next turn.
