Description
In DIG, you'll play as a dog running around the yard, digging up bones and trying to return them to the matching colored dog bowl. The goal is to do this as efficiently as possible, as you'll score based on the cumulative value of the bones you return at the end of the game. The twist is that the value of each bone is determined by how close its corresponding dog bowl is to the dog house, with closer bowls yielding higher scores. With simple rules and a short 10-minute playtime, DIG is a quick and fun game for 2 to 4 players. You'll need to use a combination of strategy and luck to outmaneuver your opponents, using actions like moving, digging, and dropping bones to get ahead. The unique leap frog yard replacement mechanism adds an extra layer of complexity, making timing critical to influencing bone value and scoring.
