About this Product
This is an amazingly fun dice game that can be played around the family table with the kids or around the bar with drinks! Be the first to get rid of all your pennies and become the champion of game night.
This listing is for the size medium version with lift top lid. It has a solid wood box with a floorboard or cabinet grade maple ply top. Text is all deeply laser engraved. We made a wood penny that mounts on the top. Includes one of our handmade dice. Please see photos with listing. Although I more highly recommend the premium or Penny Drop II version for their beauty and craftsmanship and deeper box; this version is all you need to enjoy this incredibly fun game.
You can substitute the pennies with coin(s), washer(s), or any other item which fits. Penny Drop is one of the best travel games to play on family vactions, road trips, or out camping. The compact size and self contained nature of the dice game make it extremely portable. It even makes for a hilarious drinking game to play at the bar with friends.
Measures 5.5 x 2.4 x 2.25”

RULES:
For 2 or more players
EACH PLAYER NEEDS 12 Pennies : note - you can use 10 pennies if you want to make a faster game
THE OBJECT OF THE GAME IS TO BE THE FIRST TO GET RID OF ALL OF YOUR PENNIES
1. Determine who goes first by each player rolling the single dice cube. Highest # goes first; then play proceeds in a clockwise direction.
2. Player rolls the die and must put a penny in the game board slot corresponding to the number shown on the die.
3. If the player rolls a number that already has a penny in it, they must take all of the pennies showing on the board and then the turn goes to the next player
4. A player must take at least one roll, but can take as many rolls as they want until they get stuck as in rule #3.
5. Hole number 6 lets the penny go inside the box so you can roll as many as 6’s as possible without penalty
6. Play continues until a player runs out of pennies and is declared the winner. The pennies are redistributed to start the next game.
7. A fun way to wager on the game would be for each player to put a quarter or a sum of money inside the box prior to the game starting. The winner would then be awarded that money.
