You and your friend are playing Pass the Pigs Dice Game.  You roll a Sider, then a Razorback and then a Snouter.  On your next turn you roll a Makin’Bacon and your score is “Back to Zero.” How many total points did you lose?

1 answer

In the Pass the Pigs game, each pig is worth a certain number of points based on the position they land. Here are the values for the rolls mentioned:

  • Sider: 1 point
  • Razorback: 5 points
  • Snouter: 10 points
  • Makin’ Bacon: 0 points (and means “Back to Zero”)

When you rolled the Sider (1 point), Razorback (5 points), and Snouter (10 points), you would calculate the total points from these rolls:

1 (Sider) + 5 (Razorback) + 10 (Snouter) = 16 points.

However, when you rolled the Makin’ Bacon on your next turn, your score goes "Back to Zero," meaning that your current score (16 points) resets to 0.

Thus, the total number of points you lost would be the score you had before rolling the Makin’ Bacon:

Total points lost = 16 points.

So, you lost 16 points.
