Palamedes II: Star Twinkles is a sequel to the first with new twists.
You grab dice that's equal to or one away from the number shown on the display die. The number you pick that meet either criteria will be the next shown.
There are two game modes. Mode 1 is where you clear dice and make combination. You can play by yourself to go for a high score. You can also challenge a friend or play against the computer.
hand | description | lines cleared |
---|---|---|
Dust | Any 4 numbers not in sequence | 1 line |
Seven Times | Combination totaling 7 | +1 line |
Double | Two pairs of numbers | 2 lines |
Three Straight | 3 consecutive numbers in a row | 2 lines |
Three Flush | 3 of the same number | 2 lines |
Four Straight | 4 consecutive numbers in a row | 3 lines |
Four Flush | 4 of the same number | 3 lines |
Royal Royal | Four Straight consists of 2-3-4-5 | 4 lines |
Mode 1 you can cycle through dice by pressing B and speed up lines by pressing up.
Mode 2 is played differently as you remove dice until you reach the bottom. It's always played 1-on-1 and if both players have no moves, the display die changes to a different number.
I do Quest Mode 1 'cause it's quicker. It's played on hard, but I easily curb stomp my opponents.
