Five Dice

📖 Read the strategy guide ›

Five Dice is a classic dice scoring game. Each turn you roll five dice up to three times, keeping the dice you like between rolls, then pick one of 13 boxes to score: ones to sixes, three and four of a kind, full house, small and large straights, five of a kind and chance. Reach 63 in the upper section for a 35-point bonus. Chase a personal best in Solo mode or beat the computer in a head-to-head game.

How to play

  1. Choose Solo or vs AI.
  2. Press Roll to throw the dice; you can roll up to three times per turn.
  3. Tap dice to keep them between rolls.
  4. Pick an empty box to score your dice; every box is used exactly once.
  5. After 13 turns the highest total wins. Score 63 or more in the upper boxes for a +35 bonus.

Tips

  • Aim for at least three of each number in the upper section to earn the bonus.
