About This Game

Simulate cricket with pencil and paper. Roll virtual dice by drawing lines. Score runs.

How to Play

**Setup:** Paper and pencil. One player "bats."

**Gameplay:**

  1. Batter draws 3 short lines quickly
  2. Count intersections between the lines:
  • 0 intersections = OUT
  • 1 intersection = 1 run
  • 2 intersections = 2 runs
  • 3 intersections = 4 runs (boundary)
  • Full overlap (all crossing) = 6 runs
  1. Batter continues until OUT
  2. Switch roles

**Winning:** Highest total runs wins.

**Note:** Harder than it sounds to control intersections!
