Qwinto

Players roll one to three colored dice and simultaneously record the sums on personal scoresheets that show three colored rows with overlapping columns and occasional pentagons. On their turn the active player rolls, and each player may enter the rolled sum into an empty shape in a row matching one of the dice colors, respecting two placement rules: numbers in a row must increase left to right, and no number may repeat in a vertical column. The active player who declines to write must mark a misthrow. The game ends when a player completes two rows or records four misthrows; scoring uses completed columns’ pentagon values, row end values for completed rows, single-point numbers for incomplete rows, and penalties for misthrows.
