How to play the game Roll the dice. Take a secret look at your result and then tell your result to the player next to you. Then the next player rolls the dice. The aim of the game is to get a higher result than the one before. Your result is not shown to the others until they mistrust you.  Then the dice are revealed.

Examples = 42  43, 51, 52, 53, 54, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 are better = 51  52, 53, 54, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 are better = 32  41, 42, 43, 51, 52, 53, 54, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 are better All of these are beaten if you roll any double. beats beats … The highest result that cannot be beaten is MAX:

Tricks?! If you roll the dice and are a fortunate player, you may always score a higher result. Good luck for you! If you roll the dice and do not score a higher result, you need to be a great bluffer! Pretend and say any better result you might think of. If the player next to you trusts you, good luck for you. If not, he reveals your dice result– and then BAD LUCK for you. You get one penalty point. If you roll the dice and do not score a higher result, you can roll the dice again and hand the dice cup to your neighbour without having seen it. You say a fancy result. If he trusts you, GOOD LUCK for you, if he doesn‘t trust you, BAD LUCK for you and you get a penalty point.You get the penalty point if you cannot foretell the exact result. MAX is the result that cannot be beaten by any others. The player who is the first to get five penalty points is the loser. The player with the least penalty points is the winner.

Enjoy „Max“!
