Argomento: Dice Cribbage - new game proposal

a combination of cribbage scoring and typical dice mechanism:


Equipment: 5 dice


Game play:


there is 10 rounds and who gets more points after the 10th round is finished, is the winner. Draw is when players' score is the same. Player A (let's say white) rolls 4 dice. If the player likes what he/she sees (later about this), he/she rolls the fifth die and start counting points. If the player wants to improve what he/she sees, he/she takes one, two, three or all 4 dice and reroll them. Then he/she rolls the fifth die and start counting.


Counting:


if the player rolls his 4 dice only ones, he (as a bonus) may count pips on the fifth die EITHER on top of the die, OR at the bottom ... so, if, let's say, 5 is at the top, he may use it for counting, or he may use 2, which is exactly opposite to 5 at the bottom od die ... if he chooses to reroll his 4 dice he may use only top number of his 5th die for counting ... how to count ?


1. For each pair - 2 points


2. For the same three dice - 6 points


3. For the same four dice - 12 points


4. For all the same dice - 20 points


5. For a run (sequence) - as many points as many dice make the run (3 minimum)


6. For 15 points on any combination of dice (example follows)


Example: [6] [6] [5] [4] [1] = 12 points total for all the combinations (details below)


[4] [5] [6] = 3 points (first run or sequence )
[4] [5] [6] = 3 points (second run or sequence)


[4] [5] [6] = 2 points (first 15 points)
[4] [5] [6] = 2 points (second 15 points )


[6] [6]       = 2 points (pair of 6)


IMPORTANT: in cribbage, as you noticed, cards, or dice in our game may be counted several times
in different combinations. This is very important feature in this game.


Hope all the cribbage players and dice games fanatics will find a pleasure playing this game. Perfectly playable head to head.


Andy.

joshi tm: thanks for asking ... it'll be my pleasure to explain the whole (really easy) mechanism of this little game. Let's picture this:


- we have a table showing 10 rounds and accumulated points for the players (very similar to Dice Poker)


- below the table we have 4 dice ready to be rolled and 1 separated die (similar to starter card in cribbage)


Scenerio I


- you start always by rolling 4 dice ... you examine the outcome ... do you see any pairs, 15s, runs, etc ? do you want to keep this roll ? do you see any chances to extend it when you roll starter die ? you will have two numbers from the starter die when you accept your roll now... top number or bottom number will contribute to your score ? do you need 6-1, 5-2 or 3-4 on your starter ? let's say you accept your roll of 4 dice and next step is to roll your starter die... now you are ready to count the points and your turn ends ...


Scenerio II


- you didn't like your initial roll of 4 dice ... you hope to get something better ... you take 1, 2, 3 or all 4 dice and RE-ROLL them. Next you roll the starter die and begin your counting ... this time you may use only TOP of your starter die ... this is a penalty for RE-ROLLING your 4 dice ...


OK, this is really funny and fast dice game ... it teaches some cribbage principles and how to manages your luck-skill abilities ... this game is my invention originally published on polish site devoted to dice games ...


Cheers,


Andy.

Herlock Sholmes: I rather have cribbage first, before having variants ;-)

AbigailII: and I totally agree with you ... I was thinking that this little dice cribbage would be much easier to implement since dice routines are well established here ... besides, dice games are the most popular at brainking and it would be a nice addition to our collection.


Cheers,


Andy.
