About the game
In Chili Dice, you can roll the dice as many times as you want on a turn to try to maximize your score — but you have only thirty dice rolls at most over the entire game, so take care when pressing your luck! Chili Dice includes a set of six six-sided dice, with one face on each die having red pips instead of white, with a red 1 on one die, a red 2 on another, and so on. On a turn, you roll all the dice, set aside whichever dice you wish, and rotate any red die face to the side that you wish (or leave them as is). You can re-roll the remaining dice and repeat the process, marking down each roll on the score sheet. When you stop, you score the dice in one of ten fields on the score sheet, with you scoring for the numbers 1-6 (with the red die doubling your score, if present); a straight; red dice; sets; and whatever you happen to have sitting in front of you. If you fill all ten fields before maxing out your rolls, you receive 5 points for each unused roll. Whoever scores the most points wins!

Questions and answers
Spicy Dice supports 1–4 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 Spicy Dice is 30 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 Spicy Dice 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.
Spicy Dice has a complexity rating of 1.1 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.
