Morpyam® relaxathusiasm
in 4 steps!

1 - Roll the dice
Make a figure, a combination

  • Le Morpyam® or Morpyam® Flash is played with 5 dice. At each game turn, the player has a maximum of 3 throws. Then, he hands over to the next player.
  • The objective of the dice rolls is to succeed in a figure (three of a kind, small straight, sec, call, full house, straight, square, mini, maxi or morpyam).
  • The first roll is done with the 5 dice. For the second and third rolls, the player chooses from one to five dice to reroll.
  • The player can stop rolling the dice when he has reached the target figure.

Prepare to play

with 2 players
-> 17 tokens per player

3 player
-> 11 tokens per player

4 player
-> 8 tokens per player

2 - Succeed in a combination
Place a token

  • To place a token on a square of the game grid, the player must pass the figure indicated on this square. See figure with 5 dice.
  • Each square in the Morpyam game grid can only be covered by one token.
  • If no figure is successful after the 3 rolls of the dice, the player passes the hand without placing a token.< /span>
Strategy! all his tokens to benefit from the bonus of 1 point at the end of the game (in the event of a victory on points).

3 - Line up chips
Build the KO
Score points

  • Every time a player lines up 3 tokens on the Morpyam® grid, they score 1 point.
  • Tokens of the same color can be aligned in a row, column or diagonal.
  • The game ends when one of the players has laid down all their chips or lines up 5 chips (victory by KO).

5 tokens lined up is victory by KO.
CONGRATULATIONS!
The game is over!

Shall we play again?

Victory by points

No player has managed to line up 5 tokens...
The game ends when a player has placed his last token.
The points are then counted.

4 - Win the game
BY KO or BY POINTS

The game ends either after a knockout or when one of the players places their last token .
  1. Victory by KO: The game stops when one of the players manages to line up 5 tokens (in a row, in a column or diagonally). The victory is won by  and KO!
  2. Case of a win on points: If no KO has occurred, the game ends when a players has put down all their chips. The points are then counted and cthe player receives the end-of-game bonus = +1 point . The player with the most points wins the game. In the event of a tie on points, the victory is awarded to the player who placed all his tokens.

Fair-Play Morpyam®

> To determine who starts the game, each of the players rolls a die, the player with the highest draw starts.


> The player restarts his last roll if one or more dice go off the track or are said to be broken.


> If during a throw, a collision modifies the value of one or more dice, the player loses his turn and does not place any tokens.


> A chip is definitely played on the grid as soon as the contact between the player's finger and his chip has been broken.


> The player has the option of declaring himself forfeited and leaving the game, if he agrees that he will no longer be able to win the game.


> At the end of one or more games of Morpyam®... Suggestion by Yasmine L. (6 years old!): The player or players who have lost must, preferably with a smile, put away all the elements of the Morpyam® game!

MORPYAM is the most difficult 5-dice combination to get!

The player places a token on a free MORPYAM space and the player completes a new game turn.

 

NB: if the 2 MORPYAM spaces are occupied, the player places his token on one of the other figures obtained through the MORPYAM.

The MORPYAM may be a CALL

A MORPYAM obtained on the first throw allows the ALL IN ONE

ALL IN ONE

When on the 1st roll of 5 dice, and only on the 1st throw, one of the following 6 FIGURES comes out:

MORPYAM, SQUARE, MAXI, MINI, STRAIGHT or FULL.

Getting a ALL IN ONE does not cover the CALL

 

A THREE OF A KIND or a SMALL STRAIGHT obtained on the 1st throw of the 5 dice does not allow cover the ALL IN ONE box.

 

Note: For the given example, the player can also choose to cover one of the SQUARE or THREE OF A KIND  of 5 remained free.

Sec Coul2 centre

Example here, a SQUARE of 5 obtained on the 1st roll allows you to place a token on the ALL IN ONE box

Example 1
(valid before the 1st, 2nd or 3rd throw) :
The player says in a loud and clear tone :
“I CALL a SQUARE”

Example 2
(only valid before the 1st throw…):
The player declaims loud and clear:
“I CALL a SEC”

CALL

Before rolling the dice, the player declaims loudly and clear, the FIGURE he hopes to see come out.

This is a CALL.

Before rolling dice, the player can CALL one of the FIGURES among :

MORPYAM, SQUARE, MAXI, MINI, SEC, STRAIGHT or FULL.

 

Special case CALL of ALL  IN ONE : The ALL IN ONE box  can only be called before the first throw.

 

Note: The BTHREE OF A KIND  or the SMALL STRAIGHTcannot be a CALL.

 

If the FIGURE called is successful, the player is required cover the APPEL box.

If his CALL is not successful, he can keep calling before the next roll.

 

ATTENTION! If his CALL is not successful on the third and last throw, he loses the benefit of any FIGURE previous.

And yes! We can’t have it both ways!
