About the game
Qwixx is a fast-playing dice game for two to five players in which everyone participates on every roll, no matter whose turn it is. Players mark off numbers on four color-coded rows, but only if they fall to the right of previously marked numbers, racing to fill in as many high-scoring entries as possible before penalty boxes or locked rows end the game. Simple push-your-luck choices about which numbers to take make every roll matter. It's an ultra-approachable filler that plays in about fifteen minutes.
Hobbli's Notes
Qwixx is a masterclass in minimalist design, turning a simple dice-and-scoresheet format into a surprisingly tense little game. Because every player reacts to every roll, downtime is virtually nonexistent even with a full table. It's one of the most reliable fillers to keep in a bag for any occasion.
