About game
Arrange these stubborn dice on a grid until every value aligns perfectly with its surrounding neighbors. You must rethink how you approach standard cubes since rolling is strictly forbidden here. Strategy dictates your success as you calculate edge counts and wall placements for every single piece. Rotating specific blocks allows you to manipulate blocked sides to your advantage while solving complex logic puzzles. Magic dice change everything by reacting dynamically to nearby pieces, demanding extra focus during your setup. Logic fans appreciate how these brain training challenges escalate in difficulty as the boards expand. Mastering the placement of every cube requires patience and a sharp eye for spatial patterns.

How to play
Arrange a set of dice on a grid. The number on each die must exactly match the number of cells it is adjacent to. Cells that are blocked by walls or located at the edges of the grid are not counted as adjacent.
Some dice have blocked sides. After placing a die, you can rotate it. Cells adjacent to blocked sides are not counted.
A special type of die is the magic die. Its value is determined by the number of adjacent dice. They are useful for filling in complex areas, but require careful placement.
Features
