I'm the king of the castle, and you're the dirty rascal!

A fun, family-friendly dice-rolling and picking game where you fight, elbow, push, and pull your way to the top of the castle. The first to get five pieces in the castle wins and looks down at the rascals below!

At the start of each round the First player rolls all the dice into the dice tray. Starting with the First Player each player takes a turn choosing and using a dice. Play proceeds clockwise round the table until all the dice have been chosen and actioned. At the end of each round the player sitting to the left of the start player takes the dice and becomes the new start player for the next round.

There are 8 symbols on the dice (and two dice types). Symbols define the actions you do with the pieces: Up 1 step, Up 2 steps, Pull up a piece, Give a piece a legup, swap piecs, Leap over a piece, Push a piece down and the Dirty Rascal: Push 1 of each oponents pieces down a step.

When a starting piece or 'kid' reaches step 3 they are upgraded to a 'King' whose actions are more powerful

First to get five kings to the top of the hill wins.
