Kismet

Published 1997

Kismet is a card-and-dice game where the object is to discard your hand and score the least negative points. Each player has a hand of 11 cards, numbered 2 to 12. On their turn, they roll three dice. They select two of them, add them together, and discard the card of that value. However, if they are not able to make a total which matches any of their remaining cards, then the first other player to spot this and shout out a total which they do have the card for, may discard their card of this value instead.
