In Dice's Zoo players compete to be the first to play out all twelve of their dice. On each side of each die is one kind of animal, some small and some large. When you play dice, you need to either play a bigger animal than the player before you or you can play the same animal but in a higher number. Whenever you play an animal, you may use that animal's special ability, for example, to hinder your opponent or to help you get rid of your dice faster.
