Bunko is a game played with dice in which players keep score to determine a winner. There is certainly nothing wrong with the game itself, unless one uses it as a means to gamble. Good Friday is one of the most holy and solemn days in the Church and it is also the most penitential day. Playing Bunko would not seem to be in the spirit of penance that Good Friday calls Catholics to reflect upon and observe. As well, it does seem a bit inappropriate to play games with dice when Christ's own garments were put as the prize to the games of dice the soldiers played while He hung dying.

When it comes down to it, it is no sin to play a game, not even on Good Friday. But games are joyful occasions, made for good cheer and laughter so perhaps, just for Good Friday, you might set this aside.
