Liar's Dice rules and how to play: bid, bluff and call doubt

A bluffing game played with dice hidden under cups. Players raise bids such as "at least five 4s among everybody's dice", and when a bid sounds wrong, someone calls doubt. The cups are lifted and the side that was wrong loses a die. The last player with dice wins; play the CPU or your friends.

Basic rules of Liar's Dice

Everyone rolls five dice (or three) under a cup. You see only your own dice.
In turn, players bid "at least N dice of face F among everybody's dice". The next player must raise: a higher count, or the same count with a higher face.
Instead of raising, you can call doubt on the last bid. All the cups are lifted and that face is counted.
If there are fewer than bid, the bidder loses a die; otherwise the caller does. Whoever lost the die starts the next round.
Normally every 1 counts as any face (and nobody bids on 1s). In room and CPU matches you can make 1 an ordinary face.
Players out of dice are out, and the last one with dice wins.

How to play on Asobi Lounge

On your turn, choose the count with − and + and the face with the dice buttons, then press the bid button. If your choice does not raise the bid, the button is disabled.
If the last bid looks wrong, press Doubt (ダウト). All the dice are shown and the ones counted light up.
Whoever lost a die presses Roll (カップを振る) to start the next round.

Tips

Think of each hidden die as showing your face about one time in three (when 1s are wild) and bid from there.
As the number of dice on the table shrinks, big bids are more likely to be wrong: a good moment to call doubt.
Now and then, bidding a face you do not hold can tempt the next player into a doubt that fails.
