went to the website, READ the instructions carefully, rolled the dice and thought about it for about thirty seconds before figuring it out.

yeah...played for about an 1 hour, gave up, looked online and found the answer. The answer is really lame. I hate that game now.

Yeah, I got it. Spent a few minutes overcomplicating it trying to work out numerological calculations, color based solutions, etc...Got frustrated...went back to the original paragraph, looked at the dice and then it all made sense. And yes...it's pretty freakin stupid.
