Introducing the Knucklebones dice game board.

My design is inspired by Maker's Muse video on YouTube, but with slightly different objectives:

  1. Print-In-Place: 
    • Designed for seamless printing without assembly.
    • Forgiving Model with 0.3mm tolerance
  2. Magnetic Closure:
    • Includes a magnetic closure system.
    • Pause printing at 7.20mm to insert 12.8x6.4mm magnets (Amazon link
    • Magnets are strong enough to secure closure even if dropped.
  3. Compact and Mobile: 
    • Sized for convenience at 120x60x17mm, perfect for on-the-go gaming.
    • Features an internal hinge for durability, keeping aesthetics in mind.
    • Designed for small 10mm dice, on the photo are these - Amazon link
      you need 17 dice

The F3D file is included for magnet adjustments or any needed modifications. 
Feel free to ask for assistance during the process!

 

How to play: (Short version of the Knunklebones rules)

  1. Two players. Each has three vertical rows (columns) to place three dice. Up to nine dice in total.
  2. With each turn, the player rolls a dice and places it in one of the rows.
    • If the opposite player's matching row contains a dice with the same number - the opposite player loses them from the board.
  3. The game stops when one of the players completes the full board (3x3 dice)
  4. Points calculation
    • points calculated by rows and summed up
    • if the same dice are stacked in one row, the value multiplies:
      • 5 = 5 single dice values its number
      • (5 + 5) x 2 dice = 20
      • (5 + 5 + 5) x 3 dice = 45
    • The winner is the one with a higher score
    • Example:
      • blue: 4 + 5 + 1 = 10
      • green: 5 + (4 + 4) x 2 = 21
      • yellow: (6 + 6 + 6) x 3 = 54
      • Total: 10 + 21 + 54 = 85
