About this game

The game consists of a dice cup like in Yahtzee, with 6 ordinary dice, a timer, a notepad and a pencil. Players roll the 6 dice and then everyone must use all 6 numbers to reach a particular score before the timer runs out. You start with 1, and move on progressively to 2, 3, and so forth until 10. The first player to successfully reach 10 wins the game. Each of the 6 numbers must be used exactly once, and you may Add, Subtract, Multiply or Divide as you please! When the time's up you check whose calculation is actually correct. This player moves on to the next target score. Everyone else must redo the score they just failed.
