A Game of Dice is another quest which spans most of the game, but it is not a primary quest, despite being unavoidable. It is also one of the most fun (though some players disagree), so why miss out? You can earn a few orens as you go.

Alvin is no longer at Alina’s house as he’s walked off. If you sent Alvin to live with Triss you’ll find him at the Ruins (#3) with the Gambling Ghost. If you sent Alvin to Shani then you’ll find him in the Fields (#4). If Alvin is with the Gambling Ghost you’ll need to either win a game of poker to get Alvin back or kill the ghost. Blackjack, craps, roulette and other table games offer higher Return to Player (RTP) percentages overall compared to Witcher 1 Gambling Ghost stingier games like slots. We outline these figures in this guide for our top-rated casinos to help you pick the best places to play games that land you more money. One ghost isn't so much evil as it is misguided, even in death, it loves gambling so much that it would try to gamble for human life. The monsters themselves embody failed loves—twisted. Read the Barghest contract from the notice board in front of the inn in the Outskirts. You'll find Barghests around the Outskirts at night. Collect the skulls of ten of them. Bring the 10 Barghest skulls to Abigal for 100 orens and two Mandrake Roots. When you get to those Ruins, a wraith named Gambling Ghost will ask you to dice for Alvin. If you refuse to dice with the ghost, you have to kill him, and if you do, there's no problem. If you dice with him, though, sometimes the Gambling Ghost turns hostile when you win.

Walkthrough[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

Γκέραλτ finds his first starter box of dice just outside Haren Brogg's place in the Outskirts, in Chapter I. As the witcher is making his way through the village, he comes upon some bandits who are harassing a dwarf, Zoltan. Once they have been taken care of our hero finds the curious boxes on the corpses of the recently deceased ruffians. He asks Zoltan about them and the dwarf teaches him the basics of dice poker. After that, he is on his own.

The ultimate goal is to beat King Foltest, a legendary poker player. In order to do so, Γκέραλτ needs to start from the bottom of the 'food chain': beat four novice players, then four professional, then three sharpers before reaching the top of the food chain, the king.

Notes[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

If Γκέραλτ fails to learn about dice poker from Zoltan, he gets a second chance while in prison where he can talk to the elven convict.

A Game of Dice[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I got my hands on a box of dice. It looks like dwarven handiwork. Is there a story to it? I need to find someone who can tell me more about these dice.

Zoltan Chivay[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I learned that the dwarf named Zoltan Chivay can tell me more about dice poker. If I meet Zoltan, I should ask him about poker.

The Basics[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I played Zoltan. It was educational, I think I know how it works now. I wonder if I can make any money playing... I know poker basics. time to put them to use.

The First Few Games[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I've learned the basics of poker. After talking to Zoltan, I find mysΞωτικό itching to try my luck against a professional. I should try to find professionals to play poker with.

Going Pro[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I played some of the best players and did rather well. Even Zoltan had to admit it. Only sharpers for me from now on. I should find some sharpers to play poker with.

Κείμενο με πλάγιους χαρακτήρες The Sharper I played the best and did well. Enough of this searching for opportunities. Now others can seek me out to play... I wonder if anyone can outplay me at poker...

The Legend[επεξεργασία επεξεργασία κώδικα]

I played dice poker with the king. The fact that your opponent can have you decapitated adds spice to the game. Our duel will become legendary. I'm a poker legend. (1000 XP)

The Gambling Ghost has 200 orens if you kill him.[edit source]

I'm just playing through the game for the first time, so there could be something newbish I've done wrong. But FWIW, I sent Alvin with Shani in Act III, and I'd already played the three other sharpers when I met the ghost. As expected, there's no option to play poker with him since I completed the Sharper quest already. It seems the Shani choice means I can't play him to save Alvin either. I tried the 'Die, Monster!' option, killed him, and his remains give 200 orens (playing in Easy mode if that makes a difference.) Just thought it might be an interesting tidbit. I'm not yet familiar enough with the game and all the possibilities to feel qualified to list this on the article itself, though. 07:08, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

You are quite right, if you have already completed the sharper quest then you can only kill the gambling ghost to save Alvin :) ... and don't worry about adding stuff that is wrong, I'm pretty religious about scanning this wiki to remove that stuff :) Game widow 11:24, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Additionally, if you play the game again, find all the sharpers before you actually play them .. mention dice, but then don't actually play the first time. This allows you to keep them as poker partners no matter which ones you play for the quest ... it works for all levels of player Game widow 11:36, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Harder to Meet the Ghost Than What's Listed Here?[edit source]

I'm playing a game where I left Alvin with Triss in Act III. In Murky Waters I was avoiding advancing The Heat of the Day while I wandered around. Clicking the skeleton of the ghost wouldn't wake him. Rather, Geralt kept saying something about how the bones are oddly fresh. I tried the skeleton morning and night, before and after reading Diary of a Dice Collector. The Gambling Ghost never appeared. (There was also a strange absence of giant centipedes in the area.)
The ghost did appear when I finally broke down and advanced the quest to the point where I had to go find Alvin there. (And I learned there is no option to intentionally throw the game and make the ghost babysit. They just think of everything.)
I'm not positive, but I recall that the ghost showed up only after Geralt read his diary when I played a game where I left Alvin with Shani. It could've been that the ghost showed up only after Geralt saved Alvin at the river though.
Anyway, this article doesn't mention any restriction on finding the ghost other than clicking the skeleton. Should that be changed to something like, 'click the skeleton after you've saved Alvin,' or am I missing something? Licensed Luny 01:09, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, that'd be a good idea. If you leave him with Shani, you can basically access the ghost immediately. With Triss, you have to be at the right stage of the Alvin quest to activate him.
