Little Devil Movement
When a Little Devil is positioned on a dice, he rolls it like an acrobat riding a ball. When there are dice in the Little Devil's way, move him over the top of the dice.
Making Dice Disappear by Creating Chains
You can make dice disappear by lining up vertically or horizontally at least as many dice as the number of dots. For example, if you line up five each of these dice will all disappear.
Dice disappear by sinking down into the field. If you're quick enough to join up more dice with the same number of dots to the dice that are sinking, then the new dice will sink too. This method of play is called making a chain.
Making Dice Disappear - A Happy One
The cannot be made to disappear in the usual way. However, if you join up a to the sinking dice, every other than the one that the Little Devil is standing on, will disappear. This is called the Happy One rule.

Game Modes

•
TRIAL: This is a basic mode, where you add to your score by making dice disappear.
•
BATTLE: In this mode, you fight your opponent for the premium on the dots on the dice (to raise your own score). This is either a 1 or 2 Player game.
•
WARS: In this mode, up to five players can play at once. The aim is to be the sole survivor. You will need a Multi Tap for this - see below.
•
PUZZLE: In this mode, you solve puzzles to get rid of all the dice in the field.
Using the Multi Tap
To enable three or more players to play at the same time, you will need a Multi Tap, which is sold separately. When using a Multi Tap, ensure that a Controller is inserted into Controller port 1-A, and that any additional Controllers are inserted sequentially.
Trial Mode
This is the basic mode, in which the aim is to get rid of the dice as efficiently as possible.
•

Items & Weapons
NORMAL
Normal dice are coloured. When pushed, they do not roll, but slide instead.
WOOD
When pushed, a wooden dice rolls in the same way as the Little Devil who rolls it.
ICE
When pushed, dice made of ice slide until they bump into the edge of the field or another obstruction. If an ice block collides with another ice block it will stop, but it will send the other ice block moving in its place.
STONE
Stone dice cannot be pushed. If a stone rolls over a Little Devil this will prove fatal.
IRON
Iron dice cannot be pushed, nor can Little Devils stand on them.
Tips & Maps
Don't just sit there and ponder
Pondering is the worst thing you can do when you're not doing well.
Don't move the dice around at random
You won't get anywhere unless you follow a system.
