Online version of the 1976 dice game that is still sold and played today. Cosmic Wimpout is a "push your luck" dice game where you can usually quit any time. However, if you don't, and your next roll produces no points, your turn ends and you lose all points gained on that turn.

We'll play a number of games to 200 points until the 2 hours is up. A typical 200 point game might last 15 to 45 minutes.

I'll teach everyone the game before we play the first game. Time to learn is typically 5 minutes.

You can get the Boardgamegeek entry for the game here: Cosmic Wimpout

You can go to the game publisher's site here: Cosmic Wimpout

We'll play the game on Tabletopia but use "chuck_rosselli's server" on Discord for audio.
