Perudo (liars Dice)

Tuskou, tujou! In Perudo, you’ll have to use your cunning and skill to fool your opponents (with a dash of luck thrown in for good measure). Hide your 5 dice under your cup and then, at the top, shake it. Only you’ll know which draw you’ve got. Then the bluffing begins! The principle of the game is to determine how many dice of the same face there are among all the players’ dice. You know which dice are yours, but you must determine which are your opponents’, based on their announcements, attitudes and behavior.

After observing your dice and staring at your opponents, you should announce a value and a number of dice. For example, you could state that there are 4 dice showing the value two out of all 25 dice. The next player will then have two possible actions: either he bids, or he doubts. If he bids, he’ll have to announce a higher number of dice. For example, he may suggest that there are 5 dice showing a two under the set of cups. He may also increase the value of the dice announced to make the game more difficult: there aren’t 4 dice showing two, but 4 dice showing three! But the player may also have doubts. In this case, the round stops and all the dice are revealed. It’s up to you to decide how far you can go to force your opponents to make a mistake! Don’t hesitate to use the jokers (the side of the dice with the Paco toucan), which can replace any dice value, to match your announcement.Players have the opportunity to win back one die. At the moment of an announcement, a player may shout CALZA, meaning that’s right. At this point, the turn is stopped and the dice are inspected. This maneuver is risky, but can pay off handsomely. If the announcement is correct, the player who uttered the magic word wins a die. If not, he loses a die.
