Two small rubber pigs replace the dice in this classic push-your-luck game. Players toss both pigs and score points depending on how they land — a pig on its side scores one point, a pig resting on its snout scores more, and rare positions like the Double Trotter or Snouter score big. The catch: roll a Pig Out and you lose your turn's score; roll an Oinker and you lose your total score and pass the pigs. Players decide after each toss whether to bank their points or risk one more throw. The strategy and the ridiculous positions the pigs land in make this endlessly entertaining.
Because Pass the Pigs is one of the most compact and reliably entertaining games ever made — the rubber pigs landing in ridiculous positions produces genuine laughter every time, and the push-your-luck mechanic is genuinely tense. It travels in a pocket, teaches risk assessment and is one of the best sub-£15 gifts available.
