Description
Forget everything you know about dice games. Because instead of rolling boring cubes, you're literally throwing tiny pig figurines at a table. Yes, really!
Pass the Pigs is a lighthearted dice game where players roll two pig-shaped dice and score points based on how the pigs land. Sounds weird? It absolutely is. And it's fantastic.
Here's the deal: You've got two little pig dice. You toss them on a table. Depending on how they land—snout first? Curly tail up? Both standing on all four trotters?—you score points. The goal is to accumulate points by rolling combinations like "the razorback" or "the oinker," but players must decide when to stop rolling to avoid losing their points. It's push-your-luck gaming at its finest!
But here's the REALLY fun part: There's a Hog Call variation where a non-throwing player can scream "sooee!" before an opponent rolls. If they correctly predict the pig positions, they get double the points and the thrower loses double! Yes, you get to dramatically shout "SOOEE!" in the middle of the game. Tell us that doesn't sound amazing!
Pass the Pigs is a compact all-in-one game that you can play at the pub or on your next camping trip. Everything fits in one tiny box. The whole game is basically just two pigs, a scoring sheet, and endless entertainment. You can play anywhere—kitchen table, camping trip, your friend's living room, literally any flat surface.
The first player to earn 100 points wins the game. But honestly? The real win is getting to yell pig-related things and watch your friends lose their minds when they accidentally create "Piggyback" (one pig on top of the other) and get eliminated.
Perfect for: People tired of regular dice games! Families who want something hilarious and easy to learn! Travel-loving gamers who don't want to haul board games around! Pub nights! Party people! Anyone who's ever wanted to throw pigs at a table and have it be completely legitimate! Players who appreciate absurdity mixed with actual strategy! Literally anyone with a sense of humor!
One warning though: Once you start playing, you might never want to roll regular dice again. Your gaming life has changed forever. You're now a Pig-thrower. Accept your new identity!
