The History of Perudo Dice Games

From records and archaeological excavations, we know for a fact that Perudo dice games were very much part of the ancient Incan culture many hundreds of years ago. It is believed that Perudo dice games taught Incan warriors the much respected skill of bluffing. When the Spaniards conquered parts of South America, they discovered the game and returning soldiers were responsible for spreading the game across Europe, as well as across other parts of the continent.

In most South American countries today, such as Chile, Bolivia and Peru, Perudo dice games are considered close to a national pastime. These games are known by different names (eg. Perudo Santaba, Cacho, Dudo and Liar’s Dice), depending on the region, but the basic premise of the game remains the same.

The biggest change in the history of Perudo dice games however, came with the creation of the online gambling world. Software companies were keen to bring popular gambling pastimes to the very fingertips of players from around the world, and it was only natural that internet Perudo would become part of this industry. Today internet Perudo offers players the chance to enjoy the game from the comfort of their living rooms and meet other players from around the world. From the misty South American jungles to the virtual world of the internet – Perudo dice games have certainly come a long way!
