Paleontologists

Paleontologists - A Roll-and-Write game

Overview: You are a paleontologist, trying to dig up the best fossils to earn the most points!

Items needed: 2 six-sided dice

The game is played over 20 rounds, with players playing simultaneously, trying to earn the most points by digging up fossils. All players will use the same dice pool for each roll, using the dice however each player determines.

Gameplay: Each Round you will roll 2 dice and then use those dice to draw a shape with a certain dig type on the dig site. You dig up a fossil when it is completely surrounded (orthogonally) by shapes you have drawn.

- Roll 2 dice - Roll the 2 dice. Write the numbers in the top right corner on the current round’s track. This is just used as a helpful reference. Of the two dice rolled, one will be used to determine which shape and the other die will be used to determine the type of dig.
