High Score review

High Score is a dice game that's easy to learn but offers some strategic decisions. The core gameplay involves rolling dice and trying to score points based on challenge cards that are drawn each round. Each round, players take turns trying to get the best score by using the dice in different combinations, and the player with the highest score for that round gets a bonus point chip. It's a light, fast-paced game, and I especially liked how it's portable and has a small footprint. The game is designed for 2-4 players, and each game takes about 15-20 minutes. I found the iconography on the challenge cards a bit confusing at first, but once I figured it out, it was simple to play. I enjoyed the "press your luck" element of the game as well, as you have to decide whether to risk your points or play it safe. Overall, High Score is a fun, quick dice game that's perfect for game nights or a casual get-together. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys games like Yahtzee or Farkle.
