| DESCRIPTION Try your luck using pigs as Dice!
One of the marvels of Pass the Pigs is that it can be played anywhere, anytime.
Players roll two pigs and attempt to have them land in different positions to
earn points. The more difficult the position - such as the pigs standing on
their hind legs - the more points the player earns. But players must beware;
because if they continue rolling and "Pig Out", they will lost any points
accumulated thus far.
Pass the Pigs is a portable, simple game that allows players to push their luck
in many situations!
This very portable beer & pretzels game comes as a pocket travel case containing
2 pig dice, two pencils and a scoring booklet that also includes the scoring
table. The pigs are actual pig miniatures, with a dot on their right flanks.
The object is to be the first to score 100 points using "pigs" as dice. On your
turn, you throw the pigs and hope they end up in a scoring position such as a "snouter",
"trotter" or "leaning jowler" (ranging in value from 1 to 60 points); if they
do, you decide whether to "cash" the points (pass the pigs to the next player)
or to roll again. If you roll a non-scorer ("pig out" --one pig on the right
flank, the other on the left flank; a fairly frequent result), you lose any
as-yet-uncashed points. If you throw an "oinker" (both pigs touch each other),
you lose your entire accumulated score. If you throw a "piggyback" (one pig on
top of the other), you're altogether eliminated!
