Entry: Zombie Dice - the Game - A51047787

Just a fun game.

Hi Matt

I like the layout of your text and you fairly straightforward explanation of this game.

The only part that confused me was this bit.

It consists of 13 black dice, all marked with three differing engraved symbols in three different colours..........

and then
.....with the colours being red, yellow and green. The colours indicate how difficult it is to roll a Brain symbol; red being hard, yellow is middling and green is pretty easy


I had a look at the website you linked to where I could see a photo of the dice, and this shows each dice comes in one colour, ie red, green or yellow. I wonder whether you could revise the above a little to make that clear. And also explain further why 'red brains' are harder to roll than green ones? It's a bit early in the day for me to guess the laws of probability, but there must be a basic reason here that I am missing. Or it's lack of caffeine on my part.

Thanks for this Entry Matt, I enjoyed it and it's given me an idea for a birthday present for a twelve year old.

Rewrite and update.



(any twelve year old worth his salt should love it)

Hi Matt
I think you did a good job describing the game.

I only noticed that you tell the thing about 3 shotguns twice.

Updated

I have restructured this slightly so I believe it reads better, and am happy that is is now finished. Any further comments gratefully accepted.

I also have an image available to accompany the Entry which can be seen here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pghoopyfrood/7453472764/in/photostream
