How does the Doubling Cube work?

Modified on Tue, 20 May at 1:16 PM

The doubling cube starts at '1' (or '64' as a visual indicator that it's centered and the current game stake is 1 unit). Before rolling your dice on your turn, you can choose to "double" the stakes of the game. Your opponent then has three choices:

  • Take: Accept the double. The game continues at twice the stakes, and the opponent now owns the cube (only they can make the next double).

  • Drop/Pass: Refuse the double. The game ends immediately, and you (the player who offered the double) win the current stake of the game (before the proposed double).

  • The cube can be redoubled throughout the game. It adds a significant layer of strategy!
