Recently in my Game Design class I gave an assignment called "Twitch Dice". The students were asked to create a twitch game that involved a die or dice somehow. One group came up with a game that is so simple and fun that I took it home to share with my family....and now you!
FYI: A twitch mechanic is where the player's response time is challenged.
Components:
1 standard deck of cards
1 die
Game Play:
Deal cards face up in the middle of the table, one less than the number of players. For example if there are 4 players, place 3 cards.
All players place both their hands flat on the table.
One player rolls the die:

All players place both their hands flat on the table.
One player rolls the die:
- If the die is odd, all players then grab a card from the middle of the table. Someone's not getting a card. :(
- If the die is even, all players are suppose to stay still. However, if a player's hand lifts from the table, they must put one of their cards back in the deck. The player gets to pick which card.
Once all the cards have been claimed, this process is continued until all the cards in the deck are gone.
Score:
Ace is worth 1.
Number cards are worth their face value.
Face cards are worth 10.
The player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
