Persian Zar Dice

Players take turns rolling the dice and calling out target combinations before or after the roll, depending on the house rules agreed at the start.

Certain number combinations, like matching pairs or a chosen target sum, score points or win the round outright.

Rolling a designated unlucky combination can cost the roller their points for that turn.

Players keep a running tally of points across several rounds, often using the dice throw to also decide turn order in board games it is paired with.

The player with the highest score after an agreed number of rounds is declared the winner.
