Stickers
A player may add a sticker they own onto the face of any die or card they own. When a face that has a sticker is rolled, the sticker's effect is triggered instead of the number beneath. When a card with a sticker is played, the sticker's effects are applied in addition to the card's.
A numbered sticker can only be added to a dice of greater or equal size than the sticker's number.
Each card can have up to 4 stickers attached, unless otherwise specified.
A sticker can be removed but it is destroyed when doing so.
The table below describes the obtainable stickers.

Inactivity
A player is considered to be 'inactive' if they performed no actions in the previous phase. All players are active in the first phase.
Actions
Card gifting
Once per phase, each player (the giver) may select one other player (not themselves) to receive a random card. The following also occur:
- If that player is inactive, they are granted 2 additional random cards and the giver is granted 1 random card.
- If that player has less than 5 cards, they are granted an additional card.
Exoptotic Battle
A player may state their intention to engage in battle by posting a signifying message to #game-actions. In each phase, all players who engaged in battle in the previous phase play a collective game of Exoptosis. If a player has less than 4 cards they cannot engage in battle.
In this game, if 24h elapses from the commencement of a player's turn without them acting, their turn is skipped. The winner of this game receives a random reward from the list below:
- 3 Random Cards
- 5 - 16 Vertebrae
- 2 Chips
Exoptotic Duel
A player may request a duel with a group of players by posting a message stating as such to #game-actions. These players may then reply to accept or decline this offer. If all accepted, the players play a game of Exoptosis together immediately.
Dice Rolling
Once per phase, each player may roll a subset of (or all of) their dice to gain points. The number of points they earn is the sum of the result of each dice, modified by the faces' stickers.

Exoptosis
Before the commencement of any game of Exoptosis, a player may raise the stakes by betting chips. If at least one other player matches this bet, all players must either match or further raise the bet (then all players must match this new bet). If a player does not wish to or cannot meet a bet, they must forfeit the game (but lose no chips). The winner of the game gains all chips betted.
Victory
If a player possesses at least 25 chips in their inventory, they win. The cycle then ends.
