    Bilge Dice is a gambling game found on Krawk Island. The main objective of the game is to beat your opponents by having a higher score than them.

    First you pick your ante amount. Depending on the number of times you won, you can wager larger values.

    # of Wins | Ante Amount
    0 times | 50 NP
    10 times |100 NP
    30 time | 200 NP
    50 times |500 NP
    150 times | 1000 NP
    After selecting your ante, you are taken to the main screen.

    You start with 6 dice. You must keep at least 1 of them each time you roll.

    The key to Bilge Dice is obtaining the dice 1 and 4 in order to qualify for the round. If you do not get the qualifiers, your score is nullified. After rolling a 1 and 4, your goal is to get the highest value you possibly can. You should mainly be going for 6's or 5's.

    It is also important to keep track of your opponents score on the right. By looking at their score you can make rational predictions of their final score.

    To win a round of Bilge Dice, you must have a higher score than ALL of the other characters. Winning nets you 4x your initial ante. So if your initial ante was 50 NP, you would receive 200 NP as a reward. If you tie with ANY of the characters, you will receive your initial ante back.

    Lastly, there are two avatars associated with Bilge Dice:

    1.[​IMG]
    This is obtained by winning 10 times in a row. If you lose or tie, you must start your streak over.

    2.[​IMG]
    This is obtained by winning with a score of 24. However, it is a random event, so it might take a few tries to get it.

    Thank you for reading my guide and post any questions/comments.

    Is this completely dependent on luck?

    Its a good guide covers all the basics. It refreshed my memory of how to play after two years.
    And yes it all depends on luck.

    Yes it is.

    Because you never know what kind of dices you get.
    You may or may not qualify to continue the game ( the dices 1 and 4 btw )
    So if you are feeling lucky. Go play it xD

    Does anybody know about how many times we should expect to have to win with 24 before getting the avatar? Like, does anyone know anything about the "random" probability?

    Sorry for the necro :/

    A lot... Chances are probably 1/50 or 1/100.
