In this
Pirate Farkel edition, your six Farkel dice travel in padded style! The black, plastic storage case is 2-7/8” x 2” x 3/4” with a skull and crossbones design on the front and a foam lining with dice-sized cutouts. Each black die displays numerals 2-6 rather than pips and features a skull and crossbones in place of the number one.
Farkel is the original “quit-while-you’re-ahead” dice game that goes by various names and elusive origins. Roll the dice for ones, fives, or specific combinations, and keep track of your running score. Quit while you’ve got points—or take a risk and keep rolling for more. Any roll without points, and your turn is over...and you lose any points you earned on that turn.
Depending on your source, Farkel was first played in Iceland in 1492 by Sir Albert Farkle; or on French sailing ships over 600 years ago; or as an English folk game that spread by word of mouth. Regardless of where Farkel really came from, you’ll want this edition in your game collection!
