In Tennis, you compete on two boards by rolling 1-3 dice to serve and try to land on your opponent's board. You sum the dice points but must avoid missing the board, which counts as a fault. After serving, you can roll to return the ball. There's also a doubles mode for group play.
Who Is This Game For?
Tennis is suitable for players aged 10 and up and is ideal for quick games due to its short 5-minute playtime. It's easy to learn and requires no prior experience, making it great for families and casual gamers. A solo mode is included for single players.
How It Works
The core mechanic is Dice Rolling. Players roll 1 to 3 dice to perform serves aiming to hit the opponent's board. Missing the board results in a fault. After serving, players alternate returning the ball by rolling. The doubles mode allows up to three players to join on the two boards.
