1 Shut the Box
Shut the Box is an old pub game where the tiles you close have to add up to the total you rolled. The aim is to get as many down as possible, ideally the whole box. It works just as well as a quiet solo game as it does around a table with others.
2 Perudo ↑ 1
Perudo is a bluffing game about the dice hidden under everyone else's cup. Each bid claims a number of dice showing one value, wild ones counted in, until somebody calls dudo and the cups come up. Lose all five of your dice and you are out of the game.
3 Ten Thousand ↑ 1
Ten Thousand is a game about knowing when to stop. You roll six dice, set the scoring ones aside, and choose every time between writing the turn total down and rolling on for more. One roll without a single scoring die and the whole turn is gone.
4 Yatzy ↑ 7
Yatzy is the Nordic version of the dice classic: five dice, three rolls and fifteen rows to fill. Rows for one pair and two pairs mean a middling roll still has somewhere to go. The 50 point bonus in the upper section is the prize worth steering towards.
5 Qwixx ↓ 3
Qwixx runs on six dice and a score sheet each, and because the white sum is offered to the whole table, nobody sits idle between turns. Every cross closes the boxes to its left, which turns each roll into a small decision about patience. Concentrating on two or three colours pays much better than filling in all four.
6 Yacht
Yacht goes back to 1938 and is the game both Yahtzee and Yatzy grew out of, with twelve rows and three rolls per turn. There is no bonus and no joker rule to keep track of, but the straights are stricter, since both need all five dice in sequence. Full house and four of a kind pay the pips rather than a fixed score.
7 Triple Yahtzee New
Triple Yahtzee takes the familiar score card and triples it, with three columns to fill at once. The second column counts double and the third counts triple, so where you place your points matters a great deal. A longer game for those who want extra to think about.
8 Balut ↓ 1
Balut spreads seven categories over 28 rounds and fills each of them four times. The dice totals convert into points at the end, and those points settle the game. One for players who like finishing what they started.
9 Liar's Dice New
Liar's Dice is a bluffing game where everyone hides their dice and bids on what the whole table shows together. You have to decide whether to bid higher or call the previous player out. Known from pirate films and game nights alike, and always full of tension.
10 Poker Dice ↑ 8
Poker Dice gives you poker without a deck, using five dice and up to three rolls. The hands are the familiar ones from card poker, from a pair up to five of a kind. Easy to carry anywhere, and quick to play several rounds.
