Official English rules can be found here. In Speed Dice, players want to create words quickly from the letters that they roll on their dice. To set up, each player takes eight letter dice in a single color; place the box with the dice funnel in the center of the playing area. In a round, all players roll their eight dice, then race to use exactly seven of them to create a single word or two words connected crossword-style. Once they do this, they throw their final die into the box. If their die lands at the bottom of the funnel, they take the trophy disc (from the side of the table or from an opponent) and place it silver side up. If the player who won already has the silver trophy, they flip it to the gold side. If the player who won already has the gold trophy, then they win the game!
