You want easy? Addition Version In this game you are trying to get a score of over 120 to win. If you roll a 1 then you lose everything you haven’t banked. Example 1. Roll two dice and put the numbers in the + or x column. 2. Add (+) the two numbers together and put the answer in the Points column. 3. Now decide whether you want to bank your Points. As soon as you have banked you are out for that round. If you do this write your score in the Banked column. 4. Players who don’t bank in time risk a 1 being rolled. Lets say you have built up 55 points and a 1 is rolled….You lose 55 points! 5. The first player to get to 120 wins. Also If you roll a double (two of the same number) you + the two numbers and then double that score. E.g. 2 + 2 = 4 becomes 8 You want hard?
