Pass the Pigs

Players take turns tossing two small pig miniatures and score points based on how the pigs land, with positions like snouter, trotter, and leaning jowler worth different values. On a turn, the roller may bank earned points or risk another toss to accumulate more; certain rolls (a pig out) forfeit unbanked points, an oinker removes the player’s total score, and a piggyback eliminates the player from the game. The first player to reach 100 points wins. The pocket-sized set includes two pig dice, pencils and a scoring booklet, and optional Hog Call rules let opponents gamble on predicting a throw for bonus and penalty effects.
