Roundfello🎲 How to play
Yahtzee rules
Five dice, three rolls, thirteen boxes — and the roll everyone shouts about.
- Players
- 1–8
- Time
- 20–40 min

The goal
Fill all thirteen boxes on your scorecard. After thirteen rounds, the highest grand total wins.
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 — three rolls in total.
- 3
Fill one box
Score your final dice in one empty box. If nothing fits, you must still pick one and score 0.
- 4
Chase the bonuses
Score 63+ across Ones to Sixes for a 35-point bonus. Every extra Yahtzee after a scored 50 earns +100.

Upper bonus: +35 when Ones–Sixes total 63 or more. Extra Yahtzee: +100 each, then the Joker rule — use the matching upper box if it's empty; otherwise any lower box scores full value (Full House 25, Small Straight 30, Large Straight 40). Yahtzee is a trademark of Hasbro; Roundfello is independent and not affiliated.
A second Yahtzee
- 1.You already scored 50 in Yahtzee. Now you roll 4, 4, 4, 4, 4.
- 2.You earn +100 bonus, and must put it in Fours (20) if that box is empty.
- 3.If Fours is used, you could take Large Straight for a full 40 instead.
Winning tips
- Aim for three of each number in the upper section — that's exactly 63.
- Keep Chance for a bad final roll.
- Scratch Ones or Yahtzee only when there's nothing better.
