The previous edition of Roll For It! by Calliope Games was for 2-4 players, and two sets could be combined to allow play for up to 8 players. This Deluxe edition supports 2-8 players out of the box. Roll For It! is a casual, family-friendly dice and card game. Each player starts the game with six dice of a single color, and three target cards are laid face-up on the table. Players take turns doing the following: On a turn, a player rolls all of their dice not already on cards, then places any dice that match the targets on the corresponding cards. (Alternatively, before taking her turn, a player can first choose to reclaim all of their dice from all cards.) If the player now fulfills the target with their dice – e.g., a pair of 3s, a quartet of 6s, or a specific combination of numbers – they claims the card, takes back their dice (and returns any other dice on the card to their owner), then places a new card on the table. Each card is worth a certain number of points. The first player to earn forty or more points wins!
