Boerenschroom is a 19th Century Dutch dice game, played with two special six-sided dice. One die has the letter 'B' and faces showing one, two and three spots; the other two faces are blank. The other die has the letter 'S' and faces showing four, five and six spots; the other two faces are blank. Also needed for play are eight cards, depicting a Lawyer, Clerk, Mayor, Secretary, Forester, Tax Collector (the Boerenschroom or 'Peasant's Fear') and two Peasants. Two to eight players pay or receive bets according to the roll of the dice and the cards they hold.
