Description

Mosaic is a roll-and-write game, like Yahtzee. You supply the dice and the pencils, and print off one copy of the first page for each player. The second page has the rules.

Object
To score the most Victory Points (VPs) by reconstructing only the genuine portions of ancient mosaic, while avoiding the fake regions.

1. Roll a die and mark off the entire row of tiles corresponding to that number
2. Roll the die again and, counting from left to right, mark off the corresponding column of tiles. Then, mark off the arrows pointing to that tile, and continue marking off arrows so that every column is pointed to by only one arrow.
3. Place all the dice in the dice bag and pick a starting player, who draws three dice (two in solo play). You are now ready to begin play.

How To Play
The active player takes the die passed to her, draws two dice and rolls them. On the first turn of the game, roll all three dice drawn in setup). She selects one die. Using the color to determine column and the number to determine row, she marks off the corresponding tile, and draws that tile on her mosaic. The other players do the same, selecting only from the two dice she did not select. Multiple players may select the same die from the remaining two. When you select a die pointing to a tile that is already marked out mark out a different tile in that column, and mark off and place a 1-stone tile from your reserve. After all players are done, the active player passes her die to the next player, and discards the other two dice. If the dice bag is empty. place all discarded dice back in the bag. Pass the bag to the next player, going clockwise, and continue playing. In Solo play, draw two dice per turn, do not keep any dice from turn to turn, and refill the bag when there is only one die left in the bag.
