About this board game

Mondrian: The Dice Game is a dexterity game for 2–4 players that takes about 30 minutes to play. Using cards and dice, players paint a canvas by flicking their dice in an artistic contest inspired by the work of Dutch abstract artist Pieter Cornelis Mondrian.

Mondrian was known for compositions built on a white background with black vertical and horizontal lines, along with the three primary colors. This game brings that distinctive visual style to the table through a hands-on challenge of precision and control.

The game unfolds over five rounds. In each round, players brush paint on the canvas by flicking their dice, turning the physical movement of the dice into part of the creative process. Cards and dice provide the tools for building the developing artwork.

  • Players: 2–4
  • Play time: about 30 minutes
  • Format: a dexterity game using cards and dice
  • Structure: five rounds followed by a final masterpiece and scoring

After the last round, everyone must finish their masterpiece. The completed works are then scored, and the player with the most points wins. Every flick contributes to the final result, making the journey from blank canvas to finished composition the heart of the experience.

With its combination of abstract-art inspiration, dice-flicking dexterity, and a clear five-round structure, Mondrian: The Dice Game offers a concise way to create, complete, and score a colorful canvas.
