Overview

Pass the Pigs offers a unique blend of luck and strategy as players attempt to score points by tossing pairs of pig figurines. Each toss results in a different pose, each with a specific point value. The challenge lies in deciding when to stop rolling and bank your points, or risk losing everything on a bad roll.

This edition enhances the experience by allowing up to four players to participate simultaneously. Players compete to match poses shown on cards, with the first player to achieve the match winning the card. Lucky players who match on their first toss can earn a bonus roll with all eight pigs for even greater rewards. The first player to reach 100 points wins the game.
