Pirates Dice

[SeasickCharlie]

I was wondering how to play it. I found [url=http://www.pirate-king.com/episode/1396]this site[/img], but it is still unclear. Not a well written description of the game.

Anyone know how to play it?

They have this on the Disney Pirates site:

You're very welcome for the link. It's a very fun game indeed.

While we were at Books-a-Million recently, we saw an actual physical game you could buy that was the pirates dice game.

I'll see if I can find a link somewhere for it.

I have no idea what Pirate Dice is.

In the second pirate movie - "Dead Man's Chest" there was a game that the pirates on the Flying Dutchman were playing. This was where they were betting years of their life so that if they won the bet they were released from service to Davy Jones sooner, but if they lost they had to serve a longer time.

Each pirate had a dice cup with five dice in it. They shook the cup and turned the cup over, but left the cup on top of the dice so they were hidden from the other players. Then the first round of betting took place.

Each pirate was betting how many dice total would have a certain number. For example, three sixes. Each pirate made a bet the first round and either increased the number of dice for the same number (five sixes) as the previous bet or picked a new number (four fours).

This would continue for another round and then all dice are revealed to see whose bet won - i.e. who was right and who was wrong so far as the numbers of dice.


Hope that explanation helps;-)

I purchased the real game before Thanksgiving and Christmas last year, and had a blast playing it with relatives during those holidays. It's a really fun game, maybe we could create a forum game based off of this? Hmm..

I am very bad at that game. I get it, but very bad.

I love that game! I actually had a dream about it last night. O_o No kiddin'!

Thanks for the URL. I don't like actually having to buy the game. Lol.
