DiCroNo

About this game

DiCroNo is a variation of Tic-Tac-Toe / Noughts and crosses / Xs and Os, and to play, you need two d6 normal dice, two pens/pencils, and a print-and-play score sheet. Players compete to create rows of three symbols — either Xs or Os — in a shared 6x6 grid. On a turn, you roll the dice, then mark an empty space in the grid that matches the numbers rolled, e.g., if you roll 2-4, then you can place a symbol in the second space of the fourth column or the fourth space of the second column. If you can't place a symbol, you receive a penalty. If you receive three penalties or create three lines of your symbols — with overlapping lines being permitted — then the game ends.
