Cribbage Board
Shared by Western Bay Museum
Cribbage is a classic card game, traditionally played by two players, though variations allow for three or four. The game is played with a standard 52-card deck and a distinctive cribbage board used for scoring. Players aim to reach a target score, often 121 points, by forming specific card combinations during play and scoring phases, such as pairs, runs, and fifteens. Triangular cribbage boards are an alternative design to the traditional rectangular or oval boards, offering a compact and visually distinctive layout.
