The Three Little Pigs Game Rules

Playing games is a lot of fun. It’s exciting, and it brings people together. That’s why I want to tell you about a really cool game called “The Three Little Pigs.” Have you heard of it? If not, don’t worry, I’ll explain everything you need to know.

When you play “The Three Little Pigs” game, you’ll take on the role of one of the pigs from the famous fairytale. Your goal is to build a house that can withstand the huffing and puffing of the big bad wolf. It’s a challenge, but I know you can do it!

To start the game, each player chooses a pig character. There are three pigs to choose from, each with their own unique abilities. The first pig is strong and can build walls quickly. The second pig is smart and can find materials easily. And the third pig is fast and can gather resources faster than the others. Choose the pig that best suits your playing style!

Once you’ve chosen your pig, it’s time to start building your house. You’ll need to collect materials like straw, sticks, and bricks to build your walls. The materials are scattered around the game board, so you’ll have to move your pig around to find them. Be careful though, because the big bad wolf is chasing you!

As you gather materials, you can use them to build your walls. Be strategic in your choices, because some materials are stronger than others. You want to make sure your house is sturdy enough to withstand the big bad wolf’s huffing and puffing.

Once all the players have finished building their houses, it’s time for the big bad wolf to make his move. Roll the dice to see how strong the wolf’s huffing and puffing is. If your house is strong enough, it will stand tall. But if it’s weak, it will be blown away, and you’ll have to start building again.

The game continues until one player successfully builds a house that can withstand the big bad wolf’s huffing and puffing. That player is the winner! Congratulations!

Playing “The Three Little Pigs” game is a great way to have fun with your friends and family. It’s a game of strategy and luck, where you’ll need to make smart choices and use your resources wisely. So gather your materials, choose your pig, and get ready to build the house of your dreams. Good luck, and may the best pig win!

Hey there, my little piggy friend! I know how much you want to build the perfect house to cozy up in during those chilly winter evenings. And guess what? I’ve got just the thing for you – a magical set of dice that will help you create your dream house!

But here’s the catch: There’s a sneaky wolf out there, and he’s got his eyes on your beautiful creation. His one and only goal is to blow down your house!

What You’ll Need

• A set of 36 house tiles ( 1 ) made up of 12 straw, 12 wood, and 12 brick. Each material has 4 door, 4 window, and 4 roof tiles.
• 5 special dice ( 2 ), 3 of which have a scary Wolf face on them.
• 1 Breath spinner ( 3 ) to add some excitement.
• 6 Award cards for a special gameplay variant (you’ll find more info about this at the end of the rulebook).

Getting Set Up

Hey there! Let’s set up the game, shall we? First things first, place the 36 House tiles in the center of the table. You’ll arrange them in three columns – straw, wood, and brick. Each column will have three rows containing a Door stack, a Window stack, and a Roof stack. Don’t forget to shuffle each stack before we kick off the game!

Now, let’s make sure everyone can reach the dice and Breath spinner easily. Place them near the players, within arm’s reach. We’re all set to start!

How to Play the Game

So, you want to play the Pig or Wolf game? Well, let me explain the rules to you. It’s super fun, and anyone can join in!

The Order of Play

First, we need to decide who goes first. This is easy – the person who saw pigs or wolves last gets to be the first player. After that, we’ll take turns in a clockwise direction.

Rolling the Dice

When it’s your turn, you’ll need to roll the dice. This will determine the number you get, and you’ll use that number to build houses – cool, right?

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s start building those houses and have a blast playing the game!

1. You have up to 3 chances to roll the dice.
2. Start by rolling all five dice, then keep the ones you want.
3. On the next two rolls, you can reroll any or all of your dice, including the ones you set aside.
4. If you roll a Wolf face, set that die aside. You can’t reroll it on this turn.

Here’s how it works:

1. You have three chances to roll the dice.

2. Take all five dice and give them a shake. Choose the dice you want to keep.

3. On your next two rolls, you can roll all of the dice again, or just the ones you don’t like. You can even reroll the dice you set aside earlier.

4. If you roll a die and it shows a Wolf face, set that die aside. You can’t roll it again until your next turn.

When you’re playing this game, you don’t have to roll the dice again if you don’t want to. You can choose to end your turn after the first or second roll. But remember, you have to stop after your third roll, or if you roll two or more Wolf faces.

Strategy

When I finish my turn, I can use the symbols I rolled to buy some House tiles. Let me explain how it works:

• If I roll 2 identical symbols (2 doors, 2 windows, or 2 roofs), I can buy a door, a window, or a roof of straw.
• If I roll 3 identical symbols (3 doors, 3 windows, or 3 roofs), I can buy a door, a window, or a roof of straw or wood.
• If I roll 4 identical symbols (4 doors, 4 windows, or 4 roofs), I can buy a door, a window, or a roof of straw, wood, or brick.

It’s important to note that if the dice allow it, I have to buy at least one House tile. However, I have the option to buy two different tiles if I want.

Let’s talk about placing a house you bought. Here’s what you need to do:

When it comes to building a house, everything starts with either a door or a window. You might think that the door or window should be at the bottom, but actually, a window always goes above the door. And of course, the roof always goes on top!

Now, here’s an interesting thing: you can use different materials like straw, wood, and brick in the same house. It’s like mixing and matching to create something unique and beautiful.

A house can have multiple windows, but it can only have one door and one roof. However, there’s a clever trick you can do. You can add a door below a window as long as the house doesn’t have a roof yet. But once you put a roof on the house, it’s considered complete, even if there’s no door. So, think of the roof as the finishing touch that makes the house whole.

And here’s another cool thing: you can build several houses side by side, even if they’re not completed yet. It’s like a little neighborhood in progress, each house telling its own story.

Imagine this situation: I have three houses, each made of different materials – brick, straw, and wood. Now, I want to place a door under the middle house’s window, but I have some constraints. First, I can’t put the door in the house on the right because it already has a roof. Second, I can’t place the door under the house on the left because it already has a door. That leaves me with only one option – the house in straw. But, here’s another thought – I could use the door in straw to start a new house. So, you see, even in this simple scenario, there are multiple factors to consider when making a decision.

Ever wonder what those pig heads on the House tiles mean? Well, I’ll tell you. They actually show two important things: the cost of building that tile and how many points it’s worth at the end of the game.

Beware of the Wolf

If you see two or more Wolf faces, that means the Wolf is on its way! It’s a signal that things are about to change.

When this happens, you won’t be able to roll the dice or buy any more House tiles. Instead, you’ll have a chance to shake things up by blowing on one of your opponent’s houses:

1. First, choose an opponent and pick the house you want to blow on. It doesn’t matter if the house is finished or not.
2. Grab the Breath spinner and give it a flick. Make sure the needle goes around at least once. If you’re a big blower, try blowing on one end of the needle instead of flicking it! Get some practice!
3. The needle will point to a material – either straw, wood, or brick. Remove all the tiles in the targeted house that match that material.

Afterwards, if there’s only the roof left, the house collapses and gets taken out of the game. If your opponent doesn’t have a house to blow on, your turn is over.

Game Over

• If there are 2 players, the game ends when 2 stacks of House tiles are gone.

When playing the game with 3 players, the game will end once all 3 stacks of House tiles have been used up. Similarly, with 4 players, the game ends when all 4 stacks of House tiles are exhausted, and with 5 players, it’s when all 5 stacks of House tiles are gone.

Now, let me explain how the scoring works. At the end of the game, each player will tally up their victory points in the following manner:

– Houses that don’t have a roof are discarded and don’t earn any points.

– Completed houses, on the other hand, will earn points based on each tile. A Straw tile, represented by two straw images, is worth 2 points.

Alright friends, let’s talk about the point system in our game. As you know, points are what we all aim for to win. So, how do we earn points? Well, it’s quite simple. Let me break it down for you.

First off, we have the Wood tile. This little guy here (insert image) is worth 3 points. So, whenever you have a Wood tile in your possession, pat yourself on the back because you just scored 3 points!

But wait, it gets better! We also have the mighty Brick tile. This bad boy (insert image) is worth a whopping 4 points! Yep, you heard that right, 4 whole points! So, if you manage to get your hands on a Brick tile, you’re in for a treat with those extra points.

Now, you might be wondering how to keep track of your points. Well, fret not my friend, we got you covered. We have a nifty point system that keeps count of your points as you earn them. It’s like having your very own scorekeeper right there with you.

So, go ahead and strategize, plan your moves, and make sure you go for those Wood and Brick tiles. Remember, the more points you have, the closer you are to victory!

Now, let’s get this game started and show everyone what we’re made of!

First, I want you to add up the points for your House tiles. Then, count up 1 bonus point for each flowerpot you have and 1 bonus point for each house you have completed.

Next, the player with the most victory points wins. But what happens if there is a tie? Well, in that case, the player who built the most houses takes the victory. And if there is still a tie after that, then the tied players share the victory.

Variant for Seasoned Swines

When we start the game, let’s make sure to position the six Award cards where everyone can see them.

Throughout the game, there are certain awards we can earn (+2), while others will be granted at the end of the game (+3). Remember, all these awards add up!

When the game concludes, we calculate our victory points just like in the regular rules. However, this time we won’t be getting extra points for flowerpots or completed homes. Instead, we’ll be adding points based on the Award cards we’ve earned.

The player with the highest total score will emerge victorious. In the event of a tie, the player who has constructed the most houses will claim the win. If the tie persists, the tied players will share the glory together.

The Awards

When it’s time to wrap up the game, we award the player with the most flowerpots. It’s a special honor that recognizes their outstanding performance. But what happens if multiple players have the same number of flowerpots? In that case, no one receives this award. It’s a bit disappointing, but it adds an extra element of suspense to the game. I wonder who will take home the coveted title of Flowerpot Master?

At the end of the game, I give out an award to the player with the most completed houses. The award doesn’t care how many floors the houses have or if they have a door. But, there’s a catch. If there’s a tie between a bunch of you, no one gets the award. Tough break!

Hey there! Let me tell you about this cool award that you can win at the end of a game. It’s called the “Tallest House” award.

So, basically, the player who builds the tallest house gets this award. Pretty simple, right? But there’s a catch. The house has to have at least a roof and a door. Can’t just be a few walls and nothing else.

Now, let’s say there’s a tie between a couple of players and they all have houses that are the same height. Well, in that case, nobody gets the award. Tough luck, I know.

But hey, maybe next time you’ll be the one to build the tallest house and take home the prize. Good luck!

Hey there! Let me tell you about these awesome awards that players can win in a game. The goal is to be the first one to build a house completely out of straw, wood, or brick. Pretty cool, right?

But here’s the thing – your house has to have a door, a window, and a roof too! Once you’ve built your house with all the necessary parts, you win one of these special cards. Even if a big bad wolf comes along and blows your house down, you still get to keep the card. It’s like a little trophy to show off your building skills!
