Quartz: The Dice Game
It seems that new mines keep being discovered... But these mines aren't that big and all the dwarves will have to run to get the most out of them in just one day! In this dice version of Quartz, the bet remains the same: Everyone must explore the mine and sell the mined crystals in the city at the end of the day. The dwarf who manages to collect the most money will have the mine all to himself.
The game is divided into six rounds. On their turn each player must:
1. Mine a crystal:
The player draws a crystal from the bag and places it on his cart.
If the mined crystal is an unstable crystal, the player receives a
reroll marker. There is no limit to the number of reroll tokens a player can have.
2. Roll the dice:
Each player has up to three dice rolls per turn. In the first, all 5 dice must be rolled. In the second and third they can reroll as many dice as they want. If it has a Reroll Marker, the player can discard it to perform an extra reroll.
3. Perform actions:
According to the result of the dice the player will be able to perform one or more actions. The more faces of the same action are available, the more efficient that action will be. Actions allow the player to mine more crystals, steal crystals, store crystals in the chest, or transfer unstable crystals to opponents.
At the end of the game everyone receives points according to the value of the crystals they have, being entitled to bonus points for collections of equal crystals. Each unstable crystal will penalise its owner 3 points less and the player with the fewest crystals in the chest loses 5 points.

1. Meeple Stars can be earned on retail merchandise purchased through both our webstore and café shop.
2. Most of our prices include VAT at 20%. Meeple Stars are not earned on the VAT
portion of the price. For example, if you buy a game for £50, you’ll earn Meeple Stars on the net amount of £41.67 (the remaining £8.33 goes to HMRC), which would give you 125 Meeple Stars.
3. Cover charge payments and food and drink purchases at the café do not qualify for
Meeple Stars.
4. Meeple Stars can be redeemed either during webstore checkout or when purchasing games
at the café. Each discount can only be applied to a single purchase. If the value of the item is less than the discount amount, the remaining balance will be forfeited.
5. Discounts cannot be used for shipping costs, only for merchandise.
