Le Drinquet<\/strong>
\nThis is a medieval French dice game documented in the literature of the time
\nby Franz Semrau in his work Wurfel und Wurfelspiel im alten Frankreich (1910), a
\nscholarly account of references to dice games in medieval French literature. It is a
\ntwo-player game and the players agree at the beginning of the game to use one, two,
\nor three dice. The game takes place on a checkers, or chessboard with one player
\ntaking the white squares, and the other the black squares. In order to count, a die
\nmust land on the player\u2019s color with no portion of the die trespassing on any of the
\nopponent\u2019s squares. Only dice that land entirely within your own color are scored.
\nThe scores on legal throws are totaled, and the first player to reach 101 points wins.<\/p>\n

Passage<\/strong>
\nThis 16th century game requires 3 dice, and any number of players. It begins
\nwith the Caster rolling a single die. The players then decide what they believe will
\nbe the outcome of rolling another die. Will it (A) equal 10, or lower, or (B) total 11,
\nor higher. Each player finds a partner who is willing to wager against them, and
\nthey negotiate their individual bets. If there are more players wagering on one side
\nthan the other, an individual may cover the wagers of more than one opponent, but
\nthere is no obligation to do this. If no one is willing to wager on one side, or the
\nother, the Caster re-rolls the first die.
\nOnce the bets are placed, the Caster rolls the second die. If the roll of the
\nsecond die brings the total to 11 or over, the players who wagered on that outcome
\nwin, and the third die is not used. If the total is still below 10 the betting partnersmay increase the wagers if their opponent agrees. (Once the original bets are agreed
\nupon players cannot decrease their original wagers, nor are they allowed to change
\nsides.) The Caster then rolls the third die if necessary, and wagers are settled based
\non the total of the three dice. The dice are then passed to a new Caster for the next
\nround. The Caster may also make wagers, but except for being the one to roll the
\ndice, the Caster has no advantages over other players.<\/p>\n
