Chains! is a table game for 2-8 players. The rules are very simple, making it extremely fast to learn, but mastering the game may take you a little longer.

The object of the game is to build a chain using the 6 dice, with chains being a sequence (1,2,3,4,5,6 or 6,5,4,3,2,1). You can start a new chain anytime you roll a 1 or 6, or if you roll the right dice, add to a chain you have already started. The more dice you select on each roll, the higher the points you score.

If you roll nothing to add to an existing chain and cannot start a new chain, you lose all the points you earned that turn. Do this four times in a row and you lose all your points earned in the game!

Whilst it is possible to win the game in a single turn, this is rare, but definitely achievable. The real trick in this game is knowing when to stop and save your score!

The game is highly addictive, and you can configure the target scores to win the game, and the difficulty level to make the game more challenging.

Updating chains!

I have version 3.08 of chains. I have been unable to update it to the 3.09 version to comply with the new Linden rules. I wrote to the creator but have not yet received a reply.
