01

Grid Racing

Roll 1 die through 30 segments per lap — each segment has a target number based on its type. Long straights reward high rolls. Hairpins punish them. Your score is how far you land from each target. Lowest total wins. Every circuit plays differently. Monza rewards speed. Monaco punishes mistakes.

02

Grid Derby

It's a home run derby on a 4×6 card. Each ballpark has its own layout — wind zones, wall distances, quirky dimensions. Roll the dice and see if you can clear the fence.

03

Grid Golf

Roll the dice twice per hole — once for your tee shot, once for your approach. This isn't a pro sim — it's a Saturday morning round with your buddies where someone loses a ball in the third hole and claims it "probably didn't count." Scores run high, bogeys are expected, and making par feels like a win. Simple enough for a napkin, humbling enough for 18 holes.

Grid Hockey

Roll 2 dice — red die for column, blue die for row — and find where they meet on your team's grid. GOAL means it's in. Everything else means it isn't. Thirty-two teams, real 2025–26 standings baked into every card. Buffalo picked on a dare still believes this is their year.

Grid Baseball

Two dice, nine innings, 30 teams. Roll for column and row — HR scores a run, RUN scores a run, HIT sets a Rally Token that makes your next score worth double. OUT and K kill it. Most runs wins. The Chicagos card is exactly as bleak as you'd imagine.

Grid Wrestling

Roll 2 dice each turn — column and row land you on HIT, GRAPPLE, STUN, BLOCK, or PIN. Build your momentum meter to 5 before your PIN counts. Twenty-five wrestlers across three tiers. Jobbers grind. Mid-Carders could go either way. Main Eventers are here to end you. Dale From Accounting has never won. Don't tell him.

Grid Racing

Circuit Cards.

Each card is a unique circuit — straight lengths, corner types, and pit lane strategy baked into the grid. Fast tracks give you more overtake opportunities. Technical circuits punish bad rolls.

Course Cards.

Pick your course. Each notebook features holes from one legendary course — Wisconsin or Georgia. Fairway, rough, and hazards laid out on a grid. Don't expect to shoot even par. This is a weekend hacker's game — double bogeys happen, the occasional birdie feels amazing, and that's the whole point.

Rules for All 7 Games

Learn It in
One Round.
(Seriously, One Round.)

Grid Racing

01

Pick a Circuit

Choose any of the 24 circuit cards. Each one has 30 segments in order — a mix of long straights, fast corners, medium corners, and hairpins unique to that track.

02

Roll Through Each Segment

Roll your die once for each of the 30 segments in order. Every segment has a target number based on its type. Your score for that segment = how far your roll lands from the target. Hit it exactly = 0.

03

Add It Up

Total all 30 segment scores. Lower total = faster lap. Compare your result to the circuit's par. Under par and you're on the podium. Over par and, well, there's always next race.

04

Run the Season

Record your championship points after each circuit. Complete all 24 circuits for your full season total. Lowest cumulative score takes the title.

Grid Derby

01

Pick a Ballpark

Choose any ballpark card. Each one has its own grid layout — some parks launch home runs easily, others are pitchers' parks where you'll struggle to clear the wall.

02

Roll Both Dice

One die for column, one die for row. Find the square where they meet on your ballpark card grid.

03

Check the Result

Home run square = gone yard. Any other square = out. Mark your result and step up to the plate again.

04

10 Swings Each Round

Each player gets 10 at-bats. Count your home runs and don't blow it in the bonus ball. Argue about park dimensions.

Grid Golf

01

Tee Shot

Roll the die for your tee shot. Your result sets your position on the hole. Fairway and rough are safe — sand, water, or out of bounds add +1 stroke. Land in the birdie zone and you're already −1.

02

Approach

Roll again for your approach shot. Rough, sand, or trees = +1. Water or out of bounds = +2. Birdie = −1. Eagle = −2. Bold rolls get rewarded — and punished.

03

Calculate Your Score

Add both roll adjustments to par for the hole. That's your final score. Write it on the card and move to the next hole.

04

Play 18

Work through all 18 holes, tallying strokes as you go. Lowest total score wins — but don't sweat a big number. Breaking 100 is worth bragging about. Breaking 90 and we want to hear from you.

Grid Hockey

01

Pick a Team

Each player picks a team card. Tier A teams have more GOAL cells — they shoot more and score more. Tier D teams have fewer. Someone always picks Buffalo on a dare.

02

Roll Your Shots

Roll 1d6 and add your card's shot bonus for your total shots on goal. Alternate shots with your opponent — red die for column, blue die for row.

03

Check the Result

GOAL means it's in. SAVE, BLOCK, POST, or WIDE means it isn't. Mark your goals and keep rolling until both players are out of shots.

04

Most Goals Wins

Count your goals. Most goals wins 2 pts. Tied? Flip a coin — OT winner gets 1 pt. Loser gets nothing and has to live with it.

Grid Baseball

01

Pick a Team

Each player picks a team card. Tier A teams (Los Angeles, New York) have more scoring cells. Tier D teams (Chicago, Colorado) have more Ks and OUTs. Play 9 innings each.

02

Roll Each At-Bat

Each inning, roll 1d6 — on 1–3 you get 2 at-bats, on 4–6 you get 3. For each at-bat: red die = column, green die = row. Find the cell.

03

Check the Result

HR or RUN = score 1 run. HIT or BB = set a Rally Token — your next HR or RUN scores 2 instead. OUT or K = nothing, and the Rally dies.

04

Nine Innings, Most Runs Wins

After 9 innings each, most runs wins 2 pts. Tied? Flip a coin for extra innings — winner gets 1 pt. Loser watches Colorado highlights for perspective.

Grid Soccer

01

Pick a Nation

Each player picks a team card. Roll 1 die and add your card's shot bonus — that's your shots for the match. Better teams shoot more. Life isn't fair.

02

Take Your Shots

Alternate shot by shot. Each turn: roll both dice — Red die is the column, Blue die is the row. Find that cell on your own card. You are always the attacker.

03

Check the Result

GOAL means it's in. SAVE, BLOCK, POST, or MISS means it isn't. Mark your goals and keep going until both players have used all their shots.

04

Most Goals Wins

Most goals wins 3 pts. Tied? That's a Draw — 1 pt each. Loser gets 0 pts and has to explain it to their imaginary fans. VAR is not available in this jurisdiction.

Grid Wrestling

01

Pick a Wrestler

Each player picks a wrestler card. Three tiers — Jobber, Mid-Card, Main Event. Tiers change the grid distribution, not the rules. A Jobber can beat a Main Eventer. It just doesn't happen often.

02

Roll Both Dice

Players alternate turns. Roll both dice — first die is the column, second die is the row. Find where they meet on your wrestler's grid and follow the result.

03

Build Momentum

HIT fills one momentum box. Fill all 5 and your PIN cell is live. Roll a PIN before the meter's full and the ref looks away. STUN costs your opponent their next turn. BLOCK means their next HIT won't count.

04

Land the PIN

First wrestler to roll a PIN with a full momentum meter wins. Run a single match, a full card, or an 8-person tournament. Book the storyline. Blame the dice.
