Most sources believe that the game was created by an English nobleman, Sir William of Tyre, around the year 1125. Although some of these tales may be disputed or point to different games played with dice, there is one generally agreed upon “official” history. There are a number of records going back perhaps thousands of years (more on that later). In many ways, some form of Craps seems to have been around for a very long time.
Newcomers may be a little unsure about how it all works at first, but once they get rolling, most can’t get enough. This incredibly thrilling casino game has been delighting players for a very long time.
That old saying that fate can turn on a roll of the dice is never quite as true as it is at the Craps table.
