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.

DustAny 4 numbers not in sequence1 line
Seven TimesCombination totaling 7+1 line
DoubleTwo pairs of numbers2 lines
Three Straight3 consecutive numbers in a row2 lines
Three Flush3 of the same number2 lines
Four Straight4 consecutive numbers in a row3 lines
Four Flush4 of the same number3 lines
Royal RoyalFour Straight consists of 2-3-4-54 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.

This is a 12 second improvement over my previous submission.
I luck manipulate the RNG so that you get the best combinations quicker and have the CPU raise their stack to 3 lines high.
Improved title screen skip and better luck manipulation.
I go for 2-3-4-5 straight for 4 lines then 4-3-2 straight, 5-4-3 straight, 6-5-4 straight, or three of a kind for 2 lines more.
Having the stack almost to the top make the dice go shorter distances.
As usual, Quest Mode 1, 3 set, Hard.

Fog: Judging.
Fog: Good run, can't find any obvious faults from a technical standpoint. Accepting to Vault.
feos: It's been a lonely month, this sub needs some care.
