中秋博饼Mid-Autumn Bobing
一只大碗,六颗骰子,一盒会饼,博的是好彩头One big bowl, six dice, a box of mooncakes, and a roll for good fortune
📜 起源Origin
相传清初郑成功屯兵厦门,中秋佳节将士思乡。部将洪旭便设计了这个游戏,借科举考试的名目,让大家掷骰子领月饼,以慰乡愁、鼓舞士气。Legend has it that in the early Qing dynasty, General Koxinga (Zheng Chenggong) stationed his army in Xiamen. At Mid-Autumn the soldiers grew homesick, so his officer Hong Xu invented a dice game modeled on the imperial civil-service exams: roll the dice and win mooncakes. It eased their homesickness and lifted morale.
后来博饼在厦门、泉州、漳州、金门、台湾等闽南地区流传开来。每到中秋,家家户户、公司单位都围着大碗「博」上几轮,清脆的骰子声就是闽南中秋的声音。The game spread across Southern Fujian: Xiamen, Quanzhou, Zhangzhou, Kinmen and Taiwan. Every Mid-Autumn, families and offices gather around a big bowl for a few rounds, and the clatter of dice has become the sound of the festival there.
🥮 会饼:63 块,对应科举功名The Mooncake Set: 63 Cakes, 6 Exam Ranks
传统的一盒「会饼」共 63 块,大小不一,名称对应古代科举的各级功名。功名越高,饼越大、数量越少:A traditional set holds 63 mooncakes of different sizes, each named after a rank in the imperial exams. The higher the rank, the bigger the cake and the fewer there are:
殿试第一Top scholar
榜眼Runner-up
探花Third place
进士Palace graduate
举人Provincial graduate
秀才County scholar
1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 = 63,每一级数量都是上一级的两倍。本站的积分也按这个比例设置。1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 = 63. Each rank has twice as many cakes as the one above it, and this site’s points use the same ratio.
🎲 怎么玩How to Play
- 大家围坐一桌,中间放一只大瓷碗和 6 颗骰子。Everyone sits around a table with a big porcelain bowl and 6 dice in the middle.
- 按顺序轮流,每人每次把 6 颗骰子一起掷进碗里。Take turns. On your turn, throw all 6 dice into the bowl at once.
- 看点数组合,对照下面的奖项领奖,4 点(红色)最关键。Check the combination against the prizes below. The red 4 is the key number.
- 什么都没中就传给下一个人。某一级的奖品被领完以后,再博中也没有了。No prize? Pass to the next player. Once a rank’s cakes are all gone, rolling it again wins nothing.
- 所有饼都领完,游戏结束。状元最后揭晓:谁手里的状元最大,谁就是今晚的状元。The game ends when every cake is claimed. Whoever holds the highest Zhuangyuan roll is crowned Zhuangyuan of the night.

状元也分高低。后来博出更大状元的人,可以把状元抢过来:Not all Zhuangyuan rolls are equal. A later player who rolls a higher one steals the title:
状元插金花 4 个 4 加 2 个 1,最大的状元Four 4s plus two 1s. The highest roll
六杯红 6 个全是 4All six are 4s
遍地锦 6 个全是 1All six are 1s
六杯黑 6 个相同的点(2、3、5、6)Six of a kind in 2, 3, 5 or 6
五红 5 个 4,同样是五红时比剩下那颗的点数Five 4s. On a tie, the higher sixth die wins
五子登科 5 个相同的点(非 4),同样是五子时比剩下那颗Five of a kind (not 4). On a tie, the higher sixth die wins
四点红 4 个 4,同样是四点红时比剩下两颗的点数和Four 4s. On a tie, the higher sum of the other two dice wins
各地排序略有不同,有的地方六杯红比状元插金花大,开局前先约定好。The order varies by region. Some places rank Six Reds above Golden Flowers, so agree on the rules before you start.
💡 小规矩House Rules
- 骰子出碗:有骰子掉出碗外,这一把作废,通常还要罚停一轮。Dice out of the bowl: if any die leaves the bowl, the roll doesn’t count, and you usually skip your next turn.
- 四进带一秀:Sijin + Yixiu: 很多地方可以同时领四进和一秀。In many places, this roll wins both Sijin and Yixiu.
- 抢状元:状元饼先由博中的人暂时保管,后面有人博出更大的状元就交出去,结束时才归最终的那个人。Stealing the title: whoever rolls Zhuangyuan holds the big cake for now. If someone later rolls higher, it passes to them, and only the final holder keeps it.
- 吉利话:博中大奖要大声报出来,大家一起喝彩,气氛越热闹越好 🎉Cheer loudly: announce big wins and let everyone cheer. The louder, the luckier 🎉
