Sly Dice

A dice game about claiming combinations and deciding when to trust other players. Each player rolls three dice behind a shield, with later rolls requiring dice to be set aside visibly, while three common dice are shared by everyone. Players then claim available combinations, either honestly or by bluffing. In clockwise order, opponents may pass or accuse the claimant of lying. Successful claims score points, false accusations incur penalties, and an exposed lie forfeits the combination but may earn a bonus. New combination cards are added each round, and the player with the most points at the end wins.
