Six Dice Dare

How to play

2 to 6 players, six dice. Push your luck: the more you roll, the more you may score, and the more you may lose.

A turn

• Roll the six dice and set aside some scoring dice: at least one, and every die you set aside must score.
• Then bank the turn's points, or roll the dice left for more. When all six are set aside, you may roll all six again.
• A roll with nothing to set aside loses every point of the turn, and the next player rolls.

Scoring dice

• A 1: 100 points. A 5: 50 points.
• Three of a kind: 100 times the number (three 1s: 1000). Each die more of the kind doubles it: four 4s are 800, five are 1600, six are 3200.
• 1-2-3-4-5-6: 1500 points. Three pairs: 750 points.

Winning

Once a player banks the target (5000 by default) or more, everyone else has one last turn. The highest total wins, shared when equal.
