Yeah, but that's not a game on its own, it's just a part of a game. I'm wondering about which game exists in essentially the same form elsewhere.

Once you start looking into the rules for specific games that only use dice, the rules are many and pretty specific (e.g. street dice), and it's the Chess problem again. I guess a dice game that probably exists pretty widely in the universe would be the simple children's dice game, namely, two players roll N-sided dice and the higher number wins, or you accumulate multiple rolls and play first to a given total, but that's not a very interesting game, and there's no strategy.
