Rules of the Dice Game

Locate opponents in taverns or during travel. Determine your bet wisely; avoid risking your entire fortune. The goal is to accumulate a target number of points before your opponent. Higher bets require more points. Point values are determined by specific dice combinations; press "E" to view the point chart.

On your turn, roll the dice. Select point-yielding combinations. Unselected dice can be re-rolled. Successful combinations add points to your total. A roll without any combinations (including ones and fives) ends your turn, forfeiting all points for that round.

You can re-roll all six dice if no combinations remain after your selection. Multiple successful re-rolls can lead to substantial point accumulation.

Optimal Dice Game Strategy
While luck plays a role, strategic play significantly increases your chances.

A relatively safe approach involves prioritizing ones and fives. The probability of rolling at least one of these is high, allowing frequent re-rolls. However, remember that re-rolling fewer dice increases the risk of losing all accumulated points. With four or fewer dice, it's often best to secure your current score.

Re-rolling three or fewer dice is generally high-risk, low-reward. Unless using special dice, it's rarely worth the gamble.
To maximize points in a crucial moment, consider setting aside a single die (even if better combinations exist) and re-rolling the rest. This increases your chance of improvement, albeit a smaller one. Only attempt this if losing is already a likely outcome.

Special Dice and Badges
Enhance your winning potential with special dice, obtainable through quests, merchants, or exploration. These dice offer advantageous properties, increasing your chances of favorable combinations.

Select your dice strategically at the game's start. Some dice are best reserved for re-rolls to guarantee ones or fives with fewer dice.

Badges add another layer of strategic depth. Wagering badges alongside money provides unique effects, some passive, others activated during gameplay.

Each badge offers unique strategies. For example, score multipliers are best used with high scores, requiring intuitive judgment.
