The base idea of the game is to cross the rules and the draughtboard [checkerboard] with the use of dice instead of pieces. In fact to play Dadama you need 12 dice per player and a 8 x 8 draughtboard. (Dadama is a synthesis of the Italian words “dado” = dice and “dama” = draughts/checkers – translator’s note.)
