Trouble

This is the game with the Pop-O-Matic dice launcher. It is a simplified variant of Pachisi in which only one die is rolled per turn. The game is abstract; each player has a set of pawns of their color. On each turn, the player rolls the die using the Pop-O-Matic and chooses one of their pawns to move. Pawns can only enter the track from the starting base with a roll of six. Each pawn must travel around the board and reach the finish line. If another player's pawn is hit, it returns to its starting base. The goal is to be the first to get all of your pawns to the finish line. For advanced players, we suggest modifying the rules so that when a piece is hit, it is returned only to its START square and no longer to its BASE. A piece is only returned to the BASE if it is hit from its START square.
