Frau Holle

Roll a double and you become Frau Holle – and woe to anyone who calls you anything else.

How to play

Take turns rolling two dice.

  • 7: The player on your left drinks.
  • 9: The player on your right drinks.
  • Doubles: You are now “Frau Holle”. Everyone has to call you that. Whoever forgets drinks.

Extra rules: the word “drink” is banned. And nothing may be taken directly from someone’s hand – not the dice, not anything. It has to be put on the table first. Whoever takes it anyway drinks.

Agree on drinks and amounts before you start. The game works just as well without alcohol.
