For every R you roll you must move a chip to the player on your right. For every C you roll you must move a chip to a pile in the center. So ideally, you will want to roll as many dots as possible each turn. Once a player has less than three chips left the rules change slightly.
If you have two chips for example then you will only roll two dice. The same applies to only having one chip left. If the player receives chips from another player during these rounds then they are back in the game and can roll again.
While playing LCR with special LCR dice is recommended, especially for people new to the game, you can play with regular dice as well. If you want to give this a try then you follow the same rules.
But the dice numbers represent the dots, L, C, and R symbols. The chart below explains what each number means. Like many dice games LCR is designed for simple, fast-paced play! To shorten it, decide ahead of time that players who lose all their tokens must leave the table. Some variants of LRC bring a special rule into play when a player rolls three dots in one turn -- if this happens, that player takes all the tokens in the pot. And regardless of whether you're houseruling your game, you can spice up LRC by playing with cash rather than tokens or by giving the winner a table prize.
Or if you're playing as a family, you can use candy or treats for tokens. But be aware that an edible pot may diminish before the end of the game if players can't resist dipping into it on the sly.

By: Carol Finch Updated January 09, On your turn, you can roll the dice as normal or, before you roll the dice, you can pay 3 of your chips to the center pot to change the effect of the dice from give to take.
This means that if you roll an L or a 4 , you take a chip from the player on your left instead of giving them a chip. Similarly, you take a chip from the player on your right when you roll an R or a 6 , and you take a chip from the center pot if you roll a C or a 5.
However, keep in mind that this also alters the Wild effect. If you pay 3 chips to the center to reverse the dice, then if you roll one or two 1s you must give chips to players of your choice instead of taking chips. And if you roll all Wilds or 1s on your turn then you must give all your chips to the center pot instead of taking all the chips! In this variant, a player must put their last remaining chip s into the center pot to win. In other words, if they have only one chip left, they must roll a C or 4 in order to win.
This means that all players continue to have a chance to win as long as one chip remains in the game. This variant is particularly good when playing for stakes.
Instead they must successfully roll only dots or 1s, 2s, and 3s on the dice in order to win. If they end up passing any chips to the players on their left or right, the game continues. If they pass their last chip to the center pot, all chips stay in the middle and all players play another game for a double pot. Example: Sam has 2 chips remaining and is the only player with any chips left, so on his turn he rolls 2 dice.
They come up showing two dots. Sam wins! This variant is used when playing for stakes. At the beginning of the game, instead of each player automatically receiving 3 chips, each player decides how many chips they want and antes that amount of money. The winner is the person who ends up with that last dollar. Also remember you are not out once you run out of dollars since the person next to you could still pass it to you.
I would rate this game at a 7 out of 10 because it is pure luck and does not take a bunch of talent to play. Post a Comment.
