One to six money cards are placed randomly next to 6 cardboard tiles. These cards  have denominations from 10,000 to 90,000. Cards are dealt to a tile until the amount reaches or exceeds 50,000. Some tiles now may have one card, others two or more.

Now players throw dice, one after another. They use the result to claim the money, trying to outroll opponents or cleverly use the second position on a tile when two cards have more or less the same value. When all have rolled, the player with the majority on a tile takes one card; if there are more cards he may choose which one to take but obviously will take the highest denomination, if there are more players with dice on a tile the second player takes a money card, if any, and so on. After 8 rounds the game ends and the player with the most money has won.

‘Vegas’ is a strange title for Alea that could have been published by Ravensburger itself or even another publisher such as Amigo. If Alea wishes to position itself as a publishing house for the demanding player as they say they do, and using a scale from 1 to 10 for their games, one would expect they would always use the upper half of this scale... The box artwork has an 70's atmosphere over it, but this may be intentional.

Roll the dice and draw your own tiles! Players throw for citizens they place/draw in Saint Malo, Roll five citizen symbols and a player may draw a noble that earns him 7 points. Other numbers make a soldier to defend against pirates, or a builder who converts wood into houses that score points.

There is a juggler who scores 2 points for each adjacent citizen. Players immediately score for houses, city walls, churches and jugglers, but there also is a scoring at game end when a player has filled all of his grid, eh, built Saint Malo. The washable player boards are not particularly attractive to say the least, so hopefully Stefan Brück decides to switch to cardboard tiles after all.
