Dumb Dice is a fun, fast-paced, party game probably most enjoyed by a small group of high school or college students and, it's pretty dumb!

You need a pair if dice (any size or color), a pen, and a sheet of paper (try to avoid small sheets), and preferrably a table that everyone can fit around fairly snuggly.

All players stand in a circle around the table (or sit in a circle on the floor).  The pen and paper begin in the center of the playing area and the dice are passed around the circle rolled one time by each person.  Once someone rolls doubles (i.e. two fives, etc.) than the frenzy begins.  That person takes the pen and paper and begins to right out numbers in order from 1 to 100.  Thats it.  The dice continue around the table (skipping the person writing) until someone else rolls doubles.  Once the second person rolls doubles, then they take away the pen and paper and pick up where the first person left off. 

For instance, the first person started at 1 and wrote feverishly up to 23 at which time the pen and paper were snatched away by the second person.  The second person begins at 24 and keeps going.

Play continues at a very fast pace until someone makes it to 100.  The lucky person that writes 100 is the winner. 

Sometimes you may write 20-30 numbers in a row, sometimes you might get only a few.  You may not attempt to keep the next person from taking the pen and paper from you. 

Each game lasts about 3-4 minutes and you repeat ad nauseam.

It's dumb, but fun!   Grin

Hmmm...that does sound like one of those dumb college dormitory drinking games in which the amount of fun is directly related to the quanity of adult beverages consumed.  Personally, when I roll a bunch of dice, I prefer it to determine the outcome of a ficticious combat as in HeroScape, Risk, A&A or D&D.

Not to say it still isn't a useful game for entertaining large groups of teens as I often do for work.

Zombie Dice is a quick, easy fun game too.  My kids like that one.
