Nekonyancer[img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img691d4b9621f630.49170226.jpg[/img] Knister is a quick and easy *roll-and-write* game for any number of players! [green][tip] This tutorial is best viewed on a computer![/green]1maintitlebar_content000
NekonyancerEach turn, [red]*these two dice*[/red] will be rolled. Each player will then write the sum somewhere in their personal grid. In this case, BGA rolled a *9,* so we have to write *9* somewhere. *Click [blue]here[/blue] to write 9! Then [blue]"Confirm"[/blue] your action!*211941354_1_1010dice-one-side-three 1 dice-two-side-six 1 11941354_1_1 2
NekonyancerNext, BGA rolled a *6.* *Place the 6 [blue]here! Confirm![/blue]*111941354_2_167a18dfb67d641011941354_2_1 2
NekonyancerGreat! This will keep going for a total of *25 turns,* at which point everyone's grids will be complete. Each row, column, and diagonal will then be [green]scored[/green] according to which *number combinations* they were able to make!1maintitlebar_content67a18e00308c400
NekonyancerAll the number combinations are shown to the left of our grid. If you're familiar with *Poker,* they should look pretty familiar to you! The top line reads *"2er,"* which means *"2 of a kind."* [green]So, if we put two of the same number in the same row, we'll score 1 point. If we add a third to the same row, we'll score 3 instead![/green]2maintitlebar_content67a18e00308c40011941354_2_1 14 11941354_2_2 14 11941354_2_3 14 11941354_2_4 14
NekonyancerA *Full House* is like "2er + 3er." *"Str"* is short for *"Straight,"* which consists of 5 consecutive numbers. *"Str 7"* means a Straight with a 7. *"Str [red]X[/red]7"* means a Straight without a 7. [green]I know that's confusing. Here are some examples...[/green]3maintitlebar_content67a18e00308c400
Nekonyancer*5er:* 8 - 8 - 8 - 8 - 8. *2er + 2er:* 4 - 4 - 8 - 8 - 9. *Full House:* 4 - 4 - 8 - 8 - 8. *Str 7:* 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8. *Str [red]X[/red]7:* 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12. [red]By the way, straights do not have to be in order.[/red] There's no need to make your life difficult by arranging *5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9* when *5 - 7 - 9 - 8 - 6* will work just as well!4maintitlebar_content67a18e00308c400
NekonyancerOne last twist to mention. Note that the [blue]*two long diagonals*[/blue] on the grid are a *darker* shade of blue. [green]Combinations on these diagonals are worth double points![/green]511941354_5_167a18e00308c40011941354_1_1 2 11941354_5_1 2 11941354_2_2 2 11941354_4_2 2 11941354_3_3 2 11941354_2_4 2 11941354_4_4 2 11941354_1_5 2 11941354_5_5 2
NekonyancerWith all that in mind, let's play through a little more of the game. BGA rolled a [red]*3.*[/red] [green]Where do you think we should put the 3?[/green]6dice-two-side-two67a18e00308c400dice-one-side-one 1 dice-two-side-two 1
NekonyancerWell, we might be able to build toward a straight in the top row, but 3 and 9 can't be in a straight together, so we shouldn't put it up there. Maybe we can make a second straight in the second column. *Place the 3 [blue]here![/blue]*711941354_2_367a18e00308c41011941354_3_1 13 11941354_4_1 13 11941354_5_1 13 11941354_2_3 2
NekonyancerNext, we got a 10. Good, we can use that for our top-row straight! *Place it [blue]here![/blue]*111941354_3_167a18e0a0bf9a1011941354_3_1 2
NekonyancerHmm, another 9. Maybe we can try and collect several 9s in the first column. *Place the 9 [blue]here![/blue]*111941354_1_267a18e133e42f1011941354_1_2 2
NekonyancerWhen we placed the 9 here, BGA recognized that we made a "2er" and wrote a score in the [red]*corresponding score box.*[/red] If we add more 9s to this column, upgrading this to a 3er or 4er, BGA will update the score.111941354_1_267a18e30208720011941354_1_0 1
NekonyancerAlso, BGA will keep a running total of all our scores [red]*here.*[/red] When everyone's grids are completely full, the game will end. [green]Whoever has the most points wins![/green]2knister_score_1194135467a18e302087200knister_score_11941354 1
