Which one suits you?
Corner Chaos
A quick three-lap kart race on the TV, steered by turning your phone sideways like a wheel. Items from boxes – boost, oil slick, shield – keep the drivers at the back in with a chance.
Pick Corner Chaos when things can get loud and fast and you’ve got a TV.
Five Dice
Five dice, three rolls, thirteen boxes on the score sheet: every turn is a small choice between playing safe and taking a risk. The sheet adds itself up, bonus and extra five-of-a-kinds included.
Pick Five Dice when you want a laid-back dice game where kids can keep up.
