Game rules

Taken from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mia_(game)

The game is played rolling two dice (most likely six sided). Both dice are rolled at the same time. The result is calculated as follows: value of the higher result dice * 10 + value of the lower result dice, e.g. rolling 4 and 2 would be considered 42, 6 and 1 would be 61 and so forth.

Basics

  1. A player rolls the dice -- optionally checks the result of the dice role -- and then announces the value of the roll
  2. When announcing the value of the roll the player is allowed to lie
  3. The next player has to decide if he blieves the previous player concerning the value of the roll
  • if he does, he rolls proceeds at step 1 but the announced value must be higher than the previously announced value
  • if he does not, he checks the result of the previous player and accounting is done based on 4
  1. The actual value of the dice roll is compared to the announced value
  • if the value is less than the announced value, the announcing player gets a penalty
  • if the value is higher or equal the announced value, the checking player gets a penalty

Example

Consider three players A, B and C, each starting with 5 points.

  • A rolls the dice (result: 2, 3 => 32), he announces 32
  • B believes A and rolls the dice without checking the roll of A (result: 5, 5 => 55), he announces 55 (which is higher then the previous 32)
  • C doesn't believe B and checks the roll. Because B announced correctly, C gets one point deducted as penalty, making the score A:5, B:5, C:4
  • C rolls the dice (result: 4, 3 => 43) and announces 23
  • A believes C and rolls the dice (result: 3, 1 => 31), he announces 31 (higher than 23)
  • B believes A and rolls the dice (result: 1, 2 => 21), he announces 45 (higher than 31)
  • C believes B and rolls the dice (result: 6, 6 => 66), he announces 66 (higher than 45)
  • A now cannot announce any higher than C so can only check if C is lying. Since it is not the case A gets 1 point deducted as penalty, making the score A:4, B:5, C:4
  • A rolls the dice (result 1, 1 => 11), he announces 21 (because he's a cocky bastard and likes to gamble)
  • B smells something and calls out A, checking the roll. A is caught lying and gets 1 point deducted as penalty, making the score A:3, B:5, C:4

The game can continue in this fashion infinitely or until one player reaches 0 points. The player with the most points wins.
