The Polar Bear Game

Description

In this game, which is similar to Petals Around the Rose (cataloged separately), a player rolls 5 dice and asks the participants, “How many polar bears are around the ice holes?” The participants try to figure out the riddle (rules of the game) by studying the dice arrangements and the answers that correspond. This webpage extends the game to have players also determine the number of fish and plankton.
