As an avid ttrpg homebrewer and custom dice game maker myself, I'll start off by saying I love when people try to come up with games, and I love novel ideas.

That said, there are 2 fold issues that I see with this game. First, it's free from player agency entirely, while also still being single player, meaning the game, while rng heavy, is also entirely autonomous. Bingo, at least, has a competitive nature to it.

Second, as a game, it's not very interesting. As a mathematics concept, it's kind of neat because there are deep questions as to what expected gamestates occur due to generalized versions of the rules (what is the expected turn count if you get as many bonus dice as the number you rolled twice, for instance.)

I'd add some amount of player agency for a single player game, solitaire is a good example of this.
Hm, hm, I’ll take that into consideration while reforming it. :blob_salute: :blob_cookie:

  • Rolling the same number twice gets you an extra dice.
  • Rolling consecutive numbers (e.g., rolling a 2, then a 3) gives you a second dice for two rolls.
I think, depending on your column, you're supposed to keep rolling until you earn an extra die to roll. And then I guess you roll until you get that exact number in that column while avoiding the penalties?
