Carl Friedrich Gauss's Skills

Konstant

Button Notation:	Yellow frame, k
BMO Notation:	k

Konstant Dice may not Power Attack. Konstant Dice may not Skill Attack alone.

Konstant Dice retain their initially rolled value; they are never re-rolled.

Konstant Dice may add or subtract their value when used in a multi-die Skill Attack.

Konstant Dice were introduced in the Button Brains set.

Twin

Button Notation:	Two numbers in a figure-eight frame
BMO Notation:	( , )

Twin dice are played as two dice that are rolled together and added together.

For example, a Twin 8 is represented as (8,8) and is treated as a single die that can roll values between 2 and 16. The two 8s are rolled as one, captured as one, and scored as one die worth 16 points. When they first appeared, Twin Dice always had the same number repeated twice. Twin Dice with unequal numbers also appeared in later expansions.
