Ludix

With four six-sided dice depicting Roman numbers (L-X-X-V-I-I), players try to reach a total of 300 points.

During a turn, a player can push his/her luck throwing the dice more than one time and adding the result, but if he/she fails to obtain a valid Roman numeral, he/she loses all the points for that turn.

This game has been created in cooperation with the Swiss Museum of Games of Tour-de-Peilz.

Rules booklets also contain some historical notes about dice in ancient Rome and Roman numerals.
