INSTRUCTIONS

PLAYERS: 2-6 AGES: 8+

Any player who equals or beats the target number receives

2 chips from the pot. Any player that rolls a sum of 2 or 8

anytime during the game follows the STING and STUNG rules.

CONTENTS: 12 dice; 50 chips

SET-UP: Each player gets 2 dice and 3 chips. Place rest of

chips in the center playing area (pot). Extra dice are not used.

BONUS FOR GOING ALONE:

If no other players are “in,” then you roll alone and your

winnings are doubled. For example, you‘d get 4 chips if you

equal or beat the target number. Losses are not doubled.

PLAY: The youngest player begins the game. Play passes to

the left. On your turn:

• Roll your two dice and add the numbers.

OUT OF CHIPS: If a player owes the pot, but has no chips to

pay, the player “lucks out” and does not pay. A player who is

out of chips may still roll as usual to try to win chips.

• STUNG: If the sum is 2, you‘ve been Stung and you must

pay the pot 2 chips. Your turn is over.

THE WINNER: The game is over when there are no chips left

in the pot or when there are not enough chips to pay the

winnings. (these chips stay in the pot). NOTE: Chips lost are

always paid to the pot before chips won are taken. The player

with the most chips wins the game.

• STING: If the sum is 8, you‘ve rolled a Sting! Take 2 chips

from the pot AND each player pays you 1 chip. Your turn is

over. (If a player has no chips, then he does not pay).

• If the sum is any number other than 2 or 8, this number

becomes the “target number.” You must roll again to try to

equal or beat the target number. Before you roll, all other

players decide if they are “in” (i.e., whether they also want to

roll to equal or beat the target number). On the count of “three”

the players who are “in” all roll their dice. Any player who rolls

lower than the target number pays 1 chip to the pot.
