Los Banditos

Two-player dice game in which rival bandits compete to collect victory-point tiles. Players draw two dice from a bag each turn, roll them, and place them into one of three slots to build three-dice formations that are compared like poker hands. Tiles in the center are worth 1–3 points; a player can claim a tile by holding the best formation or by proving the opponent can no longer beat it, even before the opponent’s three dice are placed. Claimed tiles are replaced from a stack, and the first player to reach 10 victory points wins. Play emphasizes hand-building with four colored dice and tactical tile acquisition.
