How to play
Draw up your game board (in this game, we were working with 3-digit numbers but you can use larger or smaller numbers if you like).
Select a multiple of hundred between 100 and 900 to be your target number.
The person with the most letters in their surname goes first.
Take it in turns to roll the dice and use the digit somewhere in your number.
Once the digits are full, players read their number and determine how far they are away from the target number. The player who is closest to the target number wins a point.
The winner with the most points after 3 rounds is declared the winner.
