Welcome to Ship, Captain, and Crew!
Hey there! Let me tell you about this awesome dice game called Ship, Captain, and Crew. It’s perfect if you don’t have a lot of time to spare but still want to have some fun. You can play with as many people as you want, as long as there are more than two players. The goal is simple – score the most points using two dice!
Getting Started
First things first, gather everyone in a circle around the playing area. Now, we’re ready to dive in!
The Rolls
Let me break down the rolls for you:
- Ship – Roll a 6
- Captain – Roll a 5
- Crew – Roll a 4
- Cargo or Treasure – Roll anything except a 4, 5, or 6
How to Play
Now, let’s get into the gameplay! In order to score any points, you need to roll a Ship, Captain, and Crew. Sounds easy, right? But there’s a catch – you can only score points with the two dice that don’t make up the needed combination.
So, roll those dice and see what you get! Keep trying until you manage to land a Ship, Captain, and Crew. Once you do, you can start racking up those points with the other dice.
The player with the highest total score at the end of the game wins! It’s that simple.
Have a blast playing Ship, Captain, and Crew with your friends and family. Good luck!
Alright, let’s get started! We need to pick someone to go first. The rest of us will go in a circle, taking turns rolling the dice.
When it’s my turn, I’ll try to roll for a Ship, Captain, or Crew. If I roll any of those, I set them aside and I won’t roll them again. But I can only keep them if I manage to roll all three. If I don’t, I won’t score any points.
If I do roll all three, the sum of the two remaining dice will determine how many points I get for that turn. I have five rolls to try and get the right combinations. And if I get all three in just two turns, I can keep rolling the other dice to score even more points. We keep playing like this until everyone has had a turn. Then the round is over.
The End of the Game
After we finish one round, the game is over. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins!
