Object of the Game

Score the most points by crossing out as many numbers in the four color-rows as possible while avoiding penalty points.


Setup

Each player takes a score board and dry erase marker.

Decide whether to play the standard game or Qwixx Mixx variant.

Before playing it's important to understand the one basic rule of Qwixx, which is that numbers must be crossed out from left to right in each of the four color-rows.

You do not have to begin with the number farthest to the left, but if you skip any numbers, they cannot be crossed out afterward.



Example: In the red row, first the 5 and then the 7 were crossed out. Therefore, the red 2, 3, 4, and 6 may not be crossed out later in the game. In the yellow row only the 1 1 and the 1 2 may still be crossed out.

In the green row you can only cross out numbers to the right of the 6. In the blue row you can only cross out right of the 10.

Tip: Put a small horizontal line through the numbers that you skipped, so that you don't cross them out later by accident.


Game Play

The first player to roll a 6 takes on the role of "active player". The active player rolls all six dice. The following two actions are now carried out in order, always one after the other:

  1. The active player adds up the two white dice and announces out loud, the resulting sum.

    All players may then (but are not required to) cross out the number that the active player announced in any (but only one) of the color-rows.


    Example: Chris is the active player. The two white dice show a 4 and a 1. Chris announces, "five", and crosses out the yellow 5 on his score board. Caroline crosses out the red 5. Annie and Nora choose not to cross out a number.

  2. The active player (but not the others) may then (but is not required to) add one of the white dice together with any one (and only one) of the colored dice and cross out the number corresponding to this sum in the color row corresponding to the color of the chosen die.


    Example: Chris adds together the white 4 with the blue 6 and crosses out the 10 in the blue color-row.


Penalties

If, after the two actions, the active player doesn't cross out at least one number, he must cross out one of the penalty boxes.

Each penalty box is worth 75 points at the end of the game. (The non-active players do not take a penalty if they choose not to cross out a number).



End of the Round

Once all players are ready, the player to the left becomes the new active player and re-rolls all six dice. Then the two actions described above are carried out again, one after the other.


Locking a Row

If you wish to cross out the number at the extreme right end of a color-row (red 1 2, yellow 1 2, green 2, blue 2) you must have first crossed out at least five numbers in that row.

If you cross out the number on the extreme right, then also cross off the lock symbol directly next to it. This indicates that the color-row is now locked for all players and numbers of this color cannot be crossed out in future rounds.

The die of the corresponding color is immediately removed from the game.



Example: Alison crosses out the green 2 and after it, the lock symbol. The green die is removed from the game.

Notes:

  • If a row is locked during the first action, it is possible that other players may, at the same time, also cross out the number on the extreme right and lock the same color-row.

    These players must also have previously crossed out at least five numbers in that row.

  • The cross on the lock counts toward the total number of crosses marked in that color-row.


End of the Game

The game ends immediately as soon as either someone has crossed out his fourth penalty box or as soon as two dice have been removed from the game (two color-rows have been locked).

It may occur (during the first action) that a third row is locked simultaneously with the second row.

Scoring

Beneath the four color-rows is a table indicating how many points are awarded for how many crosses within each row (including any locks marked with a cross). Each crossed out penalty box scores -5 points.

Enter your points for the four color-rows and the minus-points for any penalties in the appropriate fields at the bottom of you score board. The player with the highest total score is the winner.



Example: Alison has 4 crosses in red, which gives her 10 points; in yellow, she has 3 (6 points); in green 8 (36 points); and in blue 7 (28 points).

For her two penalties she must subtract 1 0 points. This means that Alison's total score is 70 points.

Qwixx Mixx



Instead of playing with the solid-colored score boards, play with the Qwixx Mixx sides. The rules of play are identical to the standard game. The only difference is that the colors are split across the four rows.
