Players

• 2  players (versus)
• 2 – 4 players (cooperative)

Materials

• 3 standard dice
• Over the Hill gameboard

Objective

• To be the first player over the hill and reach 18.

How to Play

• Players take turn rolling all three dice and use addition or subtraction to move over the hill by crossing out the numbers from 1 to 18 in order.
• Players try and cross out as many consecutive numbers in order each turn.
• Players continue their next turn at the spot they ended at on their previous turn.

Playing Example:

Example 1:

• Player one rolls a 2, 4 and 1.
• Player one can cross off 1 (2-1=1), 2 (4-2=2), 3 (2+1=3) from their gameboard.
• Player one cannot add or subtract to make 4, therefore their turn is over and will start next turn trying to cross of 4 on their way to 18.

Variations:

Making the Trek

• Players can use all four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication & division) to make their way over the hill.

Over the Mountain

• Players make their way over the mountain to reach the final number of 30.
• Players can use all four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication & division) to make their way over the mountain.
