Had it figured in two rolls, but I'm sure it would have taken much, much longer if I hadn't worked out the significance of the name. It's a cool puzzle though.

Read the story, figured it out somewhere around roll number 10. I figured it was something tricky like that, so I wasn't trying to do too much math or anything wink

Great game... worked it out in 3 throws though... think it's one of these things that you see or you don't and, even though I have a mathematical mind, it's probably harder if you start trying to figure it out using maths because once you're off you can't get it and it must be very frustrating. feel very clever now ;)

Really nice game. First 30 minutes I couldn't get the right answer, but then I begun to think about the name and got it right away.

What a wonderful puzzle. It's a perfect example of wisdom beating cleverness. I wasted so much time adding treating this as some sort of math problem...

I can't believe it took me an hour to figure it out - it seems so obvious now! Great puzzle!

Wow, took me a long time to do this; I'd say it took me around 1 - 1 and 1/2 hours to figure it out. I disagree upon the fact that "The smarter you are, the harder it is to figure it out," since I gave this to a few of my friends, and they figured it out within minutes' time. Still, great game to come across.
