Cribbage!

Just a quick FYI (and, well... blatant product pushing ), I've finally completed work on what may very well be the first and only implementation of the game of Cribbage in Second Life. It's on sale now both in-game at the Mfume Pride Mini-Shop in Perizoma (search for "Mfume" and you'll find it easily), and also in both SLExchange and SLBoutique (search for "Cribbage". It'll be on sale at the special, introductory price of L$500 for a couple weeks, and possibly longer than that, depending on how long I forget to kick the price back up to the planned regular price of L$750.

For those that don't know, Cribbage is a two player card game (it can be three or four, but this table just plays the two player version) in which the object of the game is to make totals of 15 or 31 points, or making runs or pairs of cards, playing one card at a time during the hand, and by making runs, flushes, and pairs, as well as combinations of cards that equal 15 between each hand. That's the simple overview of the game. If you want to check out the full rules of the game, hit up Google or your favorite search engine and look for 'cribbage rules'. There's lots of good sites out there!

There's a couple tables set up outside my shop in Perizoma if you want to give it a try before you buy... or if you just want to play a few games now and then, I certainly don't mind! Enjoy!

OK Ive just been to buy this...I love crib, lets see if Im smart enough to workout how to play it in SL.

MORE GAMES MORE GAMES

I'm on my way to get that soon. I was taught Cribbage as a way of learning addition when I was a very young child. I even have a small collection of cool RL boards. One SL board will be a nice addition, even though I can't display IRL.

Hope you're enjoying Cribbage! If you're looking for more games, feel free to throw some suggestions out here... I tend to just tinker with ideas, and in fact, it was 6 months from the time I started tinkering with a script that would move pegs on a cribbage board and a script that would count a cribbage hand properly, to the time that I'd built up an entire supporting script and interface with the HUD hand display and was able to release it.

If you have some ideas of what you'd like to see, I'll gladly take a shot at them at some point (it may very well be 6 months later, but... ) My goal is really to try and bring both unique, original games to SL, and games that folks are familiar with and haven't already been overdone (i.e. euchre, hearts, hold-em, Yahtzee, etc... search for those on SLExchange and you'll find at least 3 or 4 of each). Cribbage was perfect for the latter.
