Land 6 is a solitaire board game where dice are not just rolled. You use dice to represent your armies in different regions around Land 6. Each of 4 regions allows you to perform special action by decreasing value of your die. These actions are for example deploy a new army, move an army, and attack the Lord of the Cubes. Your goal is to place one of your armies with a value of at least 3 in the home region of the Lord of the Cubes.

You just know it has potential (once you turn off the music ?) but you're equally certain that the programmers didn't understand the rules any more than you do, which is why the tutorial is like eating oatmeal without any liquids to make it palatable. Unfortunately there's nothing on YouTube to explain it, which is probably because YouTube doesn't understand it anymore than the programmers do. So go knit a sweater.
This is a top-notch conversion of an excellent (if lightweight) solo design. The rules are presented in both tutorial and reference modes, and the interface design is well thought out. Good for getting a little brain exercise in while waiting for boardgaming buddies to arrive.
