Alright! So here's my improved take on a Sisyphus board game!

The Object of the Game: Get to 100 points by rolling dice.

Things you will need: 2 six-sided dice per Sisyphus, 1 twenty-sided die for The Boulder (or 3 six-sided dice), a deck of 52 playing cards (Jokers optional), and something to write on.

The Rules of the Game:

Anyone who initiates the game ("Hey, anyone wanna play 'Sisyphus'?", "Can I show you this cool dice game?", etc.) MUST play as Sisyphus. It would be rude otherwise. The Boulder shuffles the deck of cards.

Anyone playing as Sisyphus will roll their 2 six-sided dice and write down their result.

The player playing as The Boulder will roll their twenty-sided die (or 3 six-sided dice, if you want a different challenge OR you do not have a twenty-sided die available).

Each Sisyphus guesses the top card of the deck (Ace of Hearts, Two of Clubs, Seven of Spades, etc.), then The Boulder reveals the card and sets it aside.

If a player guesses correctly, they ADD The Boulder's result to their score. If a player only guesses the value (Ace, Two, Three...Jack, Queen, King), they IGNORE The Boulder's result. If a player only guesses the suit correctly (Heart, Spade, Club, Diamond), then they SUBTRACT HALF of The Boulder's result from their score. And if a player guesses incorrectly, they SUBTRACT The Boulder's result from their score.

Repeat steps 2-5 until either the deck runs out of cards or every Sisyphus gets to 100 (whichever comes first).

Notes: If you use Jokers in the deck, they are Wildcards and always count as a correct guess for Sisyphus. After step 5/Before step 2, any Sisyphus can look at, organize, and/or count the already revealed cards. And if you initiate a game of Sisyphus, you only have to be Sisyphus for the first game (if anyone wants to keep playing after that, you can be The Boulder on any subsequent games).

Always remember that suffering can give us meaning in life, and have fun!
