Card and Dice Games

Lists of games to pick from, and one-game pages that open on a rule sheet ready to print.

A list page holds many games in numbered steps: pick a few, then print the picks. Every other page is one game, with a ruling under every step and a roll chart where the game needs one.

More about these tools

A one-game page opens on the standard game, and the menu under Print this list holds the named variations and the scoring, worked through with examples. Nothing on these pages rolls or deals: bring real dice or cards, paper and a pencil. Every game is played for points, lives or counters, never for money.
