Cribbage Crawl

Play hand after hand of cribbage and let your score march your pawn down the 121-hole track. You're dealt six cards, lay two away to the crib, peg out your four against the house, then count the show, every point you earn is forward motion.

• Pegging scores fifteens, thirty-ones, pairs, runs and gos as you play cards.
• The show counts your hand and crib: fifteens, pairs, runs, flush and nobs.
• Red trap holes knock you backward and add a strike; three strikes ends the run.
• Green reward holes leap you forward or heal a strike. Reach hole 121 to escape.

• Daily: a seeded dungeon and deal everyone shares for the day.
• Practice: a fresh random crawl whenever you want.

• Desktop: click cards to lay away and to play during the pegging phase.
• Phone & tablet: tap cards to discard and play, the table is fully tap-driven.

• Aim your scoring jumps to land short of red traps, not on them.
• Use the Suggest button to learn strong lay-aways, then trust your own reads.
• A big show that vaults you onto a green reward can chain you well down the track.

The counting is cribbage, unaltered: fifteens, pairs, runs and flushes, the crib built from both players' discards, and the pegboard track to 121.

The original part is what the board becomes. Sir John Suckling's pegboard, which exists to record a score, is reimagined as a dungeon corridor — your pawn's position on the track is literally where you are, and holes along it carry traps.

That gives cribbage's scoring an unfamiliar texture. In the parent game every point is equally good; here the track has geography, so a big hand that lands you on a trap hole can be worse than a modest one that steps past it.

Cribbage Crawl wraps the traditional card game of cribbage around a dungeon-crawl track, turning peg-scoring into a push-your-luck run past traps and rewards. It is an original, free browser game on PlayPendium.
