description Qwixx Overview

Qwixx is a dice-and-number game designed by Steffen Benndorf and first published in Germany in 2012. Each player marks numbers in four colored rows on an individual score sheet, working from left to right and generally trying to complete long sequences before rows are locked. Every roll gives all players a possible action, which limits downtime, while the active player has an additional scoring option. It is designed for short sessions with simple rules and repeated probability decisions.
