Petals Around The Rose

I get it now, but it really should have been called 'petals around the roses'.. in my opinion.
 
Haha, I know this game! For one of my Graphic Design classes in college we had an assignment to create/design a visual step-by-step poster explaining the games rules, only it was 'how many polar bears are around the watering hole?'...or some such nonsense. Silly project, but it was fun drawing little polar bears.

Think literal instead of mathamatical... :p:

bbbut mathmatical is literal. can't get any more specific than mathmatical. I never did figure it out...

My wife tried and failed too... she went looking for the solution and that's how I know what it is now.

It is literal in the sense it is what you see that counts, not the assumption that dice with dots=numbers you have to add together as you would in a game...that is not literal, that is a learned notion about dice and what it is used for. Ignore the dice and just look at the dots as objects, as you would a flower's petals or polar bears around a drinking hole, instead of something that equates to a number…what you literally see, not what you assume.
