Las Vegas is a board game released in 2026 for 2–6 players, 40 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Rüdiger Dorn and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Area Majority / Influence.
Try your luck in the colorful glittering world of Las Vegas. Visit 6 different casinos and try to rake in as much money as possible. Roll all your available dice. Then choose exactly one of the numbers you rolled. Place all of the dice showing this number on the corresponding casino. Then the next player will roll. Continue until you've all placed all your dice. At the end of each round players will assess each casino in turn. Ties cancel out, and the players remaining with the first and second most dice will claim their rewards. The key is figuring out where to place your dice to win the most cash or snatch a tidy sum from someone else-- with a little bit of luck. This is a refresh of the classic version which streamlines play with fewer rounds, powerful Big Dice, and larger casino rewards. Includes a sixth player and a One-Armed Bandit variant. —description from the publisher
Las Vegas supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Las Vegas is 40 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Las Vegas for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Las Vegas has a complexity rating of 1.2 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
