It is possible you have not played this unique game but you definitely have seen it from films such as Pirates of the Caribbean. It is fun and very attractive for players. If you want to try it out, here is the way to go.
The game normally starts with every player having 5 dice and a cup to hide their role. Luckily, the game is online so you will not need to carry a cup to hide the results. During the first round, every player will roll the dice (5) and the results will be hidden under the cup.
From there players will bid on the value of the dice that was rolled. For instance, if you are playing, you can say you have 2 dice which simply mean you have 2 dice showing number 5 and then one of the other players can challenge the claim or he can continue playing. If you were telling the truth you will win and if it was the other player who was telling the truth, they will win. Get it to yourself that you can only challenge a player when it is their turn. The game continues until it is only one player who remains with dice and he gets to win the game.
