Dragon Warrior III/Pachisi Track

Pachisi (a.k.a. Sugoroku in Japanese) is a board game where you move from a starting tile to one designated as the finish. On the way to the finish there are many obstacles and positive bonuses. You need a Pachisi Ticket to play.

Rules

At the start you will receive a set amount of dice on each track. For example you will get 10 dice for the first track and 70 for the fifth track.

When it is your turn, you can throw a die (if you haven't used them all yet), look around the map, check your stats, or quit playing Pachisi.

Actions

• Throw: use a die to move 1-6 tiles forward and land on a new field.
• Look around the map:
• Check your stats:
• Quit:

Rewards

After you reach the goal you can receive a wonderful prize. Also note that the game board also has some treasure chests, cupboards, and pots that can be looted one time. There are five tracks that can be reached by finding their location in the overworld and in Alefgard. Each track is harder than the previous ones. If you get the Gold Pass by acquiring 100 TinyMedal/Small Medals, you can play the tracks an unlimited number of times.

Yellow Fields

Yellow fields represent locations of treasure. You will get a single item from one of these. The next time you land on it, it will be empty.

Green Fields

On terrain fields you may get random treasure, gold, or a monster encounter. On forest and mountain tiles the encounter-rate is higher. Sometimes there is a trapdoor.

On these fields you can sleep for a small price.

Here you can buy stuff. Some shops have things you can't get anywhere else.

These force you to take a certain path. You can't use the other paths that are available.

The staircase tiles allow you to go up or down a level.

The door-like tile will drop you down a level, which is often outside the game. This will cause you to lose the Pachisi Track game and you will have to start it all over again.

The warp field brings you to another field (randomly selected) where you can continue playing.

Blue Fields

If you land on it, then you have to move back so much fields as it stand on Field (1-6).

The Amount of Dice you can throw will be reduced (1-3).

The Amount of Money you have will be reduced (50-3000).

Red Fields

If you land on one of these, then you have to move forward as many fields as the number displayed on the field (1-6).

The Amount of Dice you can throw will be added (1-5).

You will receive money (50-5000).

Special Fields

You start the game here.

When you reach the goal tile, you finish the game and are allowed to grab special treasure.

On the fourth track there is another goal which is marked with a key.

This tile will take away a chunk of your MP (up to 25%).

This tile will reduce your MP to zero!

Return you back to the "Start" tile.

What happens on this field is random. You may receive money, fight a battle, lose experience, change a character's personality, etc.

A character's stat will be adjusted, positively or negatively. First, throw the die to determine which stat will be changed (1-Strength, 2-Agility, 3-Stamina, 4-Wisdom, 5-Luck or 6-HP). Then throw a second die that will determine how much you will receive or lose (a roll of 1-3 results in a reduction of that amount, but a roll of 4-6 results in an addition of that amount).

Restore your party's HP and MP completely.

This will damage your party for up to 25% of your HP current.

Random monster encounter.
