ABSTRACT:
Dice game methods involving three dice and a doubling cube. The methods involve the providing of an objective total count to be reached to win the game, assigning a value to each face of the dice, permitting a first player to continue rolling as long as a certain minimum value is achieved for each roll, establishing an initial entry level beyond which the player can retain an accumulated count, permitting a player to stop rolling to fix his cumulative count and recommence accumulating a count during his next roll, returning the count to the last stopped cumulative count if the player does not achieve the minimum value on a given roll, and allowing the player whose turn is about to begin to offer the doubling cube to the opponent whereby the stakes are doubled if the opponent accepts the doubling cube or the game is won by the offering player if the opponent refuses to accept the doubling cube. In one embodiment, a structural member contains a compartment for the dice and another compartment for the doubling cube. Pressing the top of the dice compartment causes the dice to be tumbled. Alternatively, the dice and doubling cube can be carried in a carrier having a hinged side. The carrier also serves as a dice shaker.
