Bluff 21, also known as Mexicali or Mexican, is a simple but fun party game based on bluffing, where being caught in a lie means being punished, usually by having to drink a shot.

GAME RULES:
The first player rolls the dice (shakes the phone), then peeks under the cup to see the score of the combined two dice. Only the player knows whats under the cup. The player then claims a score, for example, “forty-one”, before passing the cup carefully over to the next player. Rolls are scored by using the higher die as 10s and the lower die as 1s. For example, a roll of 3 and 5 would be 53. Doubles (e.g. 11, 22, ..., 66) are higher than 65, and a special roll 2-1 is called a twenty-one (or a “Mexican”) and is the highest, higher than 66.
The next player has two choices. If he believes the previous player, he cannot look at the result, but instead must roll the dice and MUST claim a higher scoring roll, even if it’s not true, and pass the phone over to the next player. If he doesn’t believe the previous player, he opens the cup, revealing the last roll to everyone. Either the bluffer (=previous player if he/she was caught in a lie) or incorrect challenger (=current player that opened the cup) loses!
