Tate and State

About

Players take turns throwing dice with the values of a smiley face, T, A, t, E, S (in order of decreasing value) and try to score the best combination. The first player can stop at one throw or re-throw all or some of the dice. Other player can only have as many throws as the first player. Some combinations are: 'Enterprise': Smiley face and TAtE (Best combination) 'Five of a kind' 'Four of a kind' and so on 'Stagnation': STAtE (losing throw, player pays penalty) This game seemed to have been produced by Tate and Lyle sugar refineries to protest against nationalization of the sugar refining industry. —user summary
