Hello! I'm a dm currently working on developing mechanics for multiple gambling games my players might come across in the future, and I need help naming them.
The first game is a simple, random dice game where a player chooses a number and three die are rolled. The number of dice that match the guessed number determines the amount of money the player wins (or loses).
The second game is a "card game" (uses dice irl) loosely based on Matt Mercer's "Gambit of Ord". Players roll 3 die of increasing value one after the other, and make intelligence checks to gain advantage on the die rolls. Whichever player has the highest number at the end wins the game.
If it helps with the naming, the players will come across these games within a very prominent religious city, so you can use forgotten realms deities as a part of the names.
First thing I think of for game one is "Fates" since in Greek mythology (and some others I think) there are 3 sisters of fate, and 3 dice to determine your winnings. But in FR, there are 2 goddesses of fortune. You could atribute the name to the rules like "triplets" maybe being what rolling all three of your number.
