ALEA is a dice game where the players move on the board, one at the time, from a dice roll and must execute the mini dice game of the square that they ended up to, to gain points.

There are nine different mini-games, and depending how far your marker is on the board, you used two or three dices to execute the mini-game. Some of the mini-games are like mini-challenge and if you fail to roll the right dices you lose points on the point grid. There are also square where you must choose an opponent to play against, so you can win those or both players can loose points if they both failed. You can also ended up on square where you can't loose points.

Exemple of a mini-game with two dice: 'Double': you have to choose a wild number before rolling the dices, that number will act like a jocker. To make points you have to roll a pair. You roll three times and make 10 points for each pair you obtained.

The first player to reach 225 points, or as they say reach the Rubicon, win the game.
