How a turn works
- 1
Roll five dice
Start your turn by rolling all five dice.
- 2
Re-roll up to twice
Keep any dice you like and re-roll the rest — up to three rolls in total.
- 3
Pick a category
After your last roll, choose one empty category and write in its score. Each category is used once per game.
- 4
Zero is allowed
If your dice don't fit anything useful, you must still fill a category — even if it scores 0.

- Save Choice as your safety net.
- Big rolls in Sixes and Fives pay off far more than Ones.
