Cinco

Roll groups of dragons

You roll your dice to achieve groups of dragons. Not all dice are always visible to all players, so you must bluff to win gold from other players. The first player rolls the dice using the dice cup, he looks at the result and announces number and colour of dragons. The next can accept this offer. If he accepts he looks at the dice and must raise the offer. If he refuses, he lifts the cup and checks the offer – the one who is in the wrong loses one gold piece to the treasure in the middle of the table. This ends the round. A roll of 5 dragons in one colour ends the round, tool. You take the treasure from the table and start a new round. If you are out of gold, the game ends and the player with the most gold wins. Cinco is a minimalistic version of Liar’s Dice, varied by loss of gold instead loss of dice and the reward for a valuable throw!
