Description

Daruma is a fast-paced and exciting dice game that's all about pushing your luck to get the most Darumas. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 2 to 5 players can dive into the fun in no time. The goal is to execute combos to obtain the maximum number of Darumas, and it all starts with throwing 8 dice. Players use the number 1 to fill the eyes of the Darumas on the game board, and when a Daruma's eye is filled, its power is unleashed, allowing for crazy combos to get even more Darumas. As players take turns, they can choose to keep going or pass, but be careful - if you get four dice with the number 4, your turn is over and you won't get anything. To make things more interesting, players can even gift their Darumas to others to get back some dice. The game is over after a series of rounds, and the player with the most points from their collected Darumas wins. Some Darumas are worth more points than others, but watch out - some might actually decrease your score. With playtime lasting around 20 to 40 minutes, Daruma is the perfect party game for a fun and thrilling experience with friends and family.
