About the game

Nokosu Dice is a trick-taking game playing Number Cards and dice in their hand to win mini-games and score points against the other players over multiple rounds. In each trick, each player plays a card or die from their hand, and the winner of the trick scores a point. There is also a chance to win bonus points at the end of each round if the number of the tricks won in the round matches the last dice left OR if a player declares they would not win any trick for the round and actually won no tricks.
