Every die is a point. Every point… a happier dog.
In Spots, you don't win by rushing. You win by being patient, taking risks... and cuddling. You have a handful of dice, some spotted dogs, and a single mission: complete six adorable four-legged friends before the others . But be careful: if you push too hard, you'll end up burying your dice in the yard. And there, they'll no longer count.
This family and solitaire board game is a perfect blend of push-your-luck, set collection, and variable actions. Each turn, you choose what to do: reroll? Block? Push further? Every dog has its own need for dice, and every unassigned die brings you closer to bust. But when you place the right die, in the right spot... the satisfaction is ear-scratching.
Why Spots will make you say “one more game” before you even finish the first one
- 🐶 Irresistible visual design : very cute illustrations and carefully crafted components
- 🎲 Pure push-your-luck : take risks to complete the dogs… but watch out for the yard
- 🧩 Different actions every game : Each game has variable setups for new combos and challenges
- 🧘 Relaxed but never banal game flow : perfect even for solo games
- 👨👩👧👦 Suitable for everyone : simple rules, but decisions that make you smile (or bite your fingers)
If you're looking for a board game with dice, animals, and lots of light-hearted but clever choices , Spots is your new favorite tabletop pet . Raise, gamble, place... and watch your pack grow with joy.
Complete six dogs. Avoid the bust. And if you fail... at least you had fun with them.
Product Details
🐸 HOW TO PLAY
1. Each player receives incomplete dog cards
At the start of the game, you'll be faced with dogs to complete with classic "black dots" (like Dalmatians). Each dog requires a certain number and type of dots, which you'll accumulate as you play.
2. Roll the dice to get points to assign
Each turn, you choose one of several available actions (visible in the center of the table), each with a specific effect on the dice roll. The dice display numbers that correspond to the dots to be placed on the dogs.
3. Assign dice to dogs... but watch out for the risk
You can assign dice to dogs who still have room for that number. But if you don't have room and the die can't be placed, you "explode" and lose that entire turn. It's a classic push-your-luck game: do you take a risk or do you stop?
4. Complete the dogs to mark them as finished
When a dog has exactly the required number of dots, you complete it and draw a new one. Each completed dog brings you closer to victory and keeps the table dynamic.
5. The first person to complete six dogs wins.
As soon as a player finishes the sixth dog, the game ends. Whoever has completed the most dogs (or reached the goal first) is the winner.
