Biddle^*

Biddle is a quick dice-and-bidding game from AMIGO: each round sets a challenge for six dice – say two three-of-a-kinds, a sum below 12, or four 3s and two 5s – and everyone bets on how many rolls it will take to pull it off.

In turn, players name a number of rolls, undercut the current bid, or drop out because they doubt it can be done. Once at least one player has dropped out, the table splits into two sides: the bidders try to meet the challenge within the stated rolls and score if they succeed – otherwise the doubters score.

The game runs ten rounds with escalating points, and whoever has scored the most at the end wins. For 2–5 players aged 8+, about 30 minutes.
