Recognized by 2 award organizations, including the Mensa Select (2014 winner) and the Spiel des Jahres (2013 nominee).
Qwixx is a quick dice game. One player rolls six dice: two white and four colored. Everyone can mark the sum of the white dice on their score sheet. The active player can also mark a white and a colored die.
Each colored row must be marked from left to right, so you skip numbers carefully. Rows can be locked, which ends them for everyone. The player with the most points when the game ends wins. Everyone plays on every turn, so there's no waiting.
