About this board game
Start Player Express is a one-minute game for 2–99 players that uses four custom dice to determine who goes first.
Choosing a start player should be quick, and this game is built around that single purpose. Instead of searching for a box, shuffling cards, and turning over a card, simply roll the dice and find out who starts.
The publisher describes Start Player Express as a faster, more technologically advanced follow-up to the 2006 card game Start Player. It keeps the solution simple while removing the need for shuffling and reducing the amount of reading involved.
