How to Play the Game of Chips

The Game of Chips is a game for two or more players produced by Jax Ltd. Players take turns rolling two dice and removing chips that equal the number rolled. The player with the smallest total points wins the game. To achieve this, you want to remove the higher-value chips from your stack first. This helps you keep a smaller score at the end of each round, which in turn lets you win the game. The Game of Chips is easy to learn, and it is suitable for players age 7 and older.

Instructions

  Write the players' names in the available places on the score card.

  Roll the dice. The player who rolls the highest number gets the first turn.

  Put the 10 chips face up in front of the player so you can see the numbers printed on the chips. The player then rolls the dice.

  Look at the number the player rolled on the dice. You must remove chips that equal the number rolled. For example, if you rolled six on the dice, you can remove the chip with 6 printed on it, or you could remove the 4 and 2 chips.

  Repeat rolling the dice, removing the chips that match the numbers rolled each time. When you cannot match the number rolled with the remaining chips, your turn ends.
