A Fun Game of Chance, Strategy, and Learning

Super Six is a delightful game that combines chance, probability, and recognition of numbers or shapes. Players throw dice and strategically get rid of their sticks - the first to clear all their sticks wins! Perfect for family play, classroom fun, or early learning activities.

Components:

1 jar
36 wooden sticks
1 dice with dots
1 dice with figures

Objective:

Be the first player to have no sticks left.

Setting Up the Game:

Distribute an equal number of sticks to each player.
Decide whether you’ll play using the numbers side (for older children) or the figures side (for younger children or those learning shapes).
Place the jar in the centre of the table with the cover showing the chosen side, along with the dice.

How to Play:

First Round: Each player takes a turn throwing the dice, passing play to the right.

Subsequent Rounds: Players must choose whether to:
Keep going: Roll the dice and try to get rid of more sticks.
Hold: Stop and avoid the risk of hitting an already occupied number.

When You Roll:

If the number/figure is free, place a stick in the corresponding hole - it is discarded.
If it’s already occupied, remove the stick from the jar and keep it.

The “lucky six” hole in the jar permanently discards a stick, adding excitement and giving the game its name.
End of the Game:
The winner is the first player with no sticks left!
