Ricochet

Ricochet is a race game played on the board shown, divided into rows with only a few ways to get from one to the next.

Each player has two pieces which start on the same space. On a turn a player rolls a die and moves one of their pieces accordingly. If it lands on a dot it moves through the opening to the next row. If it lands on an X the player loses their next turn.

If a piece encounters any other piece it ricochets and continues its movement back the way it came. However, it may not end up where it started the turn.
