Description

Clever hoch drei features the same gameplay as Ganz schön clever and Doppelt so clever, but with new categories in which to score — sometimes with several dice at the same time.

Your goal: Choose dice, then place the numbers into the matching colored area, put together tricky chain-scoring opportunities, and rack up the points. The dice you don't use are as important as what you do because every die that's smaller than the chosen one can be used by the other players, keeping everyone in the game at all times.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • Bonus prioritization — Players can go for bonuses, and filling certain sections speeds up bonus acquisition. Other sections offer more points but no bonuses.
  • Chain reactions — Prioritizing bonuses leads to a higher likelihood of chain combo reactions.
  • Dice placement on silver platter — Dice are placed in specific spots on the 'silver platter' and cannot be placed elsewhere unless it's a silver platter spot.
  • Solo Play — It's a good game for solo gaming, with an app to assist.

Quotes (from this video)
  • This is probably one of the most unique roll and writes I think I've ever played.
  • It's got a lot of challenging things in it and it's not a simple roll and write.
  • You're taking tiles out of this central area, you're drafting tiles, and then you're placing those tiles into your grid on your paper.
  • And then the scoring is based on sets of symbols.
  • It uses very minimal components, just a pencil and paper.
  • We're doing a giveaway.
  • We'll be talking about the two games that we're being we'll be giving away actually today so if you're looking to win a copy of silver and gold or sonara then make sure you comment down below and check out our other videos to get even more.
