   trying to get back into building mode, i put together a game from my past. i don’t remember how to play it, despite the hours spent playing it while procrastinating during university. i’ll dig out the rules and try it out.
 
the case is double built, with a fairly stable hinge set-up, once again assisted by fellow lug member jason allemann, but the handle is less substantial. forsaking holding power for looks, it can be lifted by the handle for a brief second or two.
   
 

   the die are not lego-built, they are from the actual backgammon game i own, making the colour choices all too obvious. while only 15 stones are needed for each opponent, i included 16 of each because one is bound to lose a stone or two along the way.

the game is on! enjoy.

Other than the doubling die, you could use the dice from the Oriental Expidedition games, since they are officially Lego.

thank you for directing me to this piece, i didn’t know lego made dice. if this is the one you’re referring to, it only goes to 5 with a hook as the sixth side.

lego does make other die: this dotted one in creator board game - the race to build it in white and in red in creator board game deluxe and ludo and this one in math games set but i prefer the colours and matching of mine.

thanks anyway!
