RIANZA 4.5

A Betting and Bluffing Tile Game — Interpretation by 4.5 Cantina

Claim tiles that match the roll, or bluff and hope no one calls it. Guess wrong on a challenge and your hand grows; guess right and theirs does. First to legally empty their hand calls DECIO and wins.

Opponents

Wagering

Off is a pure race to empty your hand. On adds antes, betting, and a pot that only DECIO or a challenged Full Match can win.

Difficulty

Sets how well the droids read a claim. Their personalities hold at every level: L3-37 is always the loosest of the table, ID-10T the steady middle, 4Q-2 the most aggressive.

Rianza — Rules Reference

A tile game of trust and betrayal. Be the first to empty your hand and call DECIO. In the wagering game, the winner also takes the Credit Pot.

Setup

Up to 5 players. Shuffle all 28 tiles.
Each player takes an equal number of tiles (5 or more). Leftovers form the face-down Boneyard.
Each player starts with 20 credits.
Keep your tiles hidden — trust no one.

The Tiles

Each tile shows two numbers, 0–6.
A 0 is wild and may stand for either rolled number.
The 0/0 tile may stand for both dice at once.

Playing a Round

Four steps, then play passes to the next player clockwise.

1. Ante & Roll

Every player with credits antes 1 into the pot.
The roller rolls both dice openly — all claims this round are judged against that roll.
Credit Elimination — if only one player can still ante, that player wins the game and takes the pot.

2. Make Claims

Each player places one or two tiles face down as a claim — truthfully, as a bluff, or makes no claim at all.
No Claim, No Challenge — a player who doesn't claim cannot wager or challenge that round.
One tile is truthful if it holds either rolled number (a wild 0 stands for either). Two tiles are truthful if together they cover both numbers.
On doubles, every tile in the claim must individually cover the matched number.

Full Match — a single tile that represents both dice at once (roll 3+5 → the 3/5 tile; roll 4+4 → the 4/4 tile; 0/0 is a Full Match for any roll). The strongest possible claim, and the only kind that can win the pot — but only if it's challenged and proves truthful.

3. Wager (wagering variant only)

Only players with active claims take part, starting left of the roller — the roller always acts last.
Pass 1: check, bet, raise, or fold.
Pass 2 (only if needed): players who still owe the bet may call or fold only — no further raising.
Wagered credits stay in the pot regardless of outcome. Go all-in if you can't cover a bet in full.
Folding returns your claimed tiles to your hand, forfeits any credits already wagered, and takes you out of challenges this round. If everyone folds, the round ends.

4. Challenge

Resolved one at a time, starting with the roller and continuing clockwise. Only one player may challenge each claim.
No challenge: the claimed tiles go face down into the Boneyard.
Truthful, challenged: the challenger takes the claimed tiles, plus the same number of random tiles from the claimant's hand.
Bluff, challenged: the claimant keeps the claimed tiles and takes the same number of random tiles from the challenger.
Truthful Full Match, challenged: resolves as a truthful claim above — but the claimant also takes the entire pot in credits. A win in credits, a loss in tiles, at the same time.
If a player can't provide the full number of tiles owed, they give as many as they have left.
After a Full Match wins the pot, every player who still has credits antes 1 to start a new pot.

DECIO!

The moment a player's hand reaches zero tiles, they call "DECIO!" and win immediately — even if other claims from the round haven't been resolved yet. The winner takes the Credit Pot.

Tile-Only Variant (no wagering)

Skip credits, the pot, ante, and wager steps — go straight from claims to challenges.
Players may pass, but cannot fold.
Ignore Full Match pot payouts and credit elimination.
All claim, challenge, tile-transfer, Boneyard, and DECIO rules stay the same.

Quick Reference

Core rule: no claim, no challenge.
Turn order: claims go clockwise from the roller; wagering starts left of the roller (roller last); challenges start at the roller, then clockwise.
Challenge results: no challenge → Boneyard. Truthful → challenger takes 2× the claimed tiles. Bluff → claimant takes claim-size tiles from the challenger. Full Match → claimant also takes the pot.
Credit elimination: last player who can still ante wins the game and the pot.
All-in: can't cover a bet in full? Go all-in with what you have.

Tile ID Notation

S = Series (lower pip, 0–6, printed at the bottom). T = Tile (upper pip, 1–6, printed at the top). Σ = Pip Sum (S+T), shown as the combined grid — not part of the tile's identity.

Table Options

Opponents, wagering, and difficulty are chosen up front, on the title screen — hit "⟲ NEW GAME" to go back and change them.

Dice faces

Numerals are faster to read. Spike glyphs are the same seven symbols printed on the tiles, so matching a roll to your hand becomes shape-matching rather than translation. Aurebesh renders the roll in-universe script.

Aurebesh All

Renders every label, button, and heading in the game in Aurebesh script instead of Orbitron. Tile and dice glyphs are unaffected either way.

Sound

Dev Tools

Tile palette

Amber reads as a lit Imperial console. Steel is closest to the physical printed tiles.

Screen color

Recolors everything on screen that isn't white to a single chosen color — a true monochrome display, independent of the tile palette above.

Aurebesh detail rows

The fine printed detail on each tile face. Turn off if tiles feel busy at small sizes — frame, count marks and the value glyph still carry the read.

Voice

Gritty Vocalizer (square wave + ring-mod) is the default. Clean Droid is a softer sine/triangle voice. Music Box adds a bell-like decay to every cue.

Octave — Standard

Shifts every cue up or down in register — lower reads heavier and more mechanical, higher reads brighter and smaller.
