Read the full game description

In Qwingo, a.k.a. Top 12, each player races to be the first to complete the 12 boxes in any one of the five columns on their player sheet. During play, one player calls out a number from 1 to 100, then rolls the symbol die to determine in which column that number must be placed. Choose those positions carefully because, in order for you to win, a column must contain numbers only in ascending order from top to bottom. The instructions includes solitaire rules
