Hi I downloaded this earlier today and been trying to figure it out. Can someone explain what to do or how to play? This looks fun but I can't figure it out.

"Diced" is a matching game where you must match 5 numbers, or a strait, either horizontally or vertically. When you first start the game, Voiceover will inform you of your current die and all spaces on the grid are empty. Swipe left or right to hear your position on the grid. For example, Voiceover will announce, "Empty. Row 1, column 1. Select to place 3". Now double tap row 1, column 1 to place the 3 on the grid. Note that some die are presented as wild cards. Using our example of 3, columns 1 through 4 of row 1 contain 3, but column 5 of the first row is empty. Place the wild card in column 5, which is now also 3. Once the row or column has been completely filled, all numbers in that row or column disappear and you score points. In the Normal game mode, you are provided with 3 bombs to destroy unwanted numbers. For example, row 1 may contain the numbers, 3, 3, 3, 2, and column 5 is blank. Place a bomb in column 5 to destroy the 2 in column 4. The game ends when all spaces on the grid are filled. There are also 2 other modes of gameplay: zen mode and blitz mode, but I generally concentrate on normal mode. I hope this makes sense.

I'm enjoying this game a lot. I'm wondering if there is any documentation or a way to reset the tutorial. Also, is there a way to move the dice from one spot to another? Thanks.

#8 Tutorial at the start of the game
Submitted by Teresa on
Yes, there is a tutorial when the game first begins, but I am sure I missed a few things. Nothing on the help page for this app, either. It's pretty straightforward, but just wanted to be sure about dice movement and when to use bombs.
#9 Slapping my forehead; missed the help button
Submitted by Teresa on
There's a help button as big as life on the bottom right inside a game. Doh. And it does what you might expect, including rerunning the tutorial if you want.
