Chinchiro is one of Japan's most popular traditional dice games. Throw three dice into a bowl and the best combination wins. If you know Cee-lo, you'll feel right at home. The app faithfully recreates the clatter of dice hitting the bowl and the way they tumble, so you can enjoy Chinchiro anytime, anywhere. ■ Two modes ・Battle Mode: place your bet and take on the CPU to see who has the better luck ・Free Mode: roll as much as you like with nothing at stake, great for parties and nights out ■ Hands (strongest to weakest) 【Pinzoro】[1][1][1]. The best hand, pays 5x 【Arashi】Three of a kind other than 1s. Pays 3x 【Shigoro】The straight [4][5][6]. Pays 2x 【Points 1–6】When two dice match, the third die is your point. [6][6][2] is 2, [1][5][1] is 5. Higher is better 【Hifumi】The straight [1][2][3]. You pay double 【Shonben】A die flies out of the bowl. The worst hand; can be turned on in Settings (0.5% chance) 【Menashi】No hand after three rolls Ranking in Battle Mode: Pinzoro > Arashi > Shigoro > points (6>5>4>3>2>1) > Hifumi > Shonben House rules for Arashi, Hifumi and Shonben vary from place to place, so in this app you decide whether Shonben can happen. ■ No tricks Every roll is decided by random numbers. You can throw by swiping, long-pressing or tapping, and the odds are exactly the same either way. ■ Secret mode Do a certain something and you'll find yourself in a very dangerous mode... ※ For entertainment only. No real money is involved. ※ The game is available in English and Japanese.

Shake the cup and watch three dice reveal one at a time in Sic Bo Cup, an offline, single-player game built around a simple lacquered tray and plain-language odds. Leave mid-round and your bet and dice are waiting when you come back. CHOOSE ONE BET, ONE WAGER • Small wins on a dice total of 4 through 10. • Big wins on a dice total of 11 through 17. • Any triple beats Small and Big: rolling three matching dice loses both. • Specific triple names one face and pays 150:1 net if all three dice match it. • Any triple pays 30:1 net on any matching three. • Single number names one face and pays 1:1, 2:1, or 3:1 net by how many times it appears. Every bet's exact condition and payout are shown before you wager, in plain text, not casino shorthand. A rules sheet explains the full table before you roll. VIRTUAL CHIPS, CLEAR BOUNDARIES Chips are virtual entertainment currency. They have no cash value, cannot be transferred, and cannot be redeemed for money or prizes.
