HOW TO PLAY
1

On your turn, roll all five dice, then choose to re-roll any number of them up to two more times to improve your combination.

2

After your final roll, choose an open category on the scorecard, such as three-of-a-kind, a straight, or a full house, and record your score there.

3

Each category can only be used once per game, so plan which rolls fit which remaining categories.

4

If a roll doesn't fit any category you want, you can score zero in a category you're unlikely to fill later.

5

After every category has been filled by every player, add up each player's total score; the highest total wins.
