Overview

Jupiter is a quick tactical abstract game. Each turn the player must choose between playing markers or dice on the board. Dice are rolled and placed on the board. Points are given to players who have their markers in straight lines (horizontally and vertically) to the dice. When the board is full, the game ends, and the player with the most points wins.
