TRADITIONAL GAME MODE:

In Traditional mode, you'll follow rules very similar to YAHTZEE. Each turn allows up to three rolls, and there are 13 turns per game. After each roll, select the dice you want to keep to aim for high scores in categories like 3 of a Kind, 4 of a Kind, Full House, Small Straight, Large Straight, Five Dice, and Chance. Score at least 63 points on the left side to earn a 35-point bonus. The first Five Dice scores 50 points, with subsequent Five Dices earning a 100-point bonus. This mode has its own leaderboard.

SEQUENTIAL GAME MODE:

Sequential mode challenges you to allocate scores in a specific order: from 1's to 6's on the left side and from 3 of a Kind to Chance on the right. Categories are initially grayed out and become available after your first roll. You must assign your score to the enabled category after three rolls, except when rolling a Five Dice, which can be allocated to the Five Dice category and resume the sequence next turn. Additional Five Dices earn a 100-point bonus. This mode also features its own leaderboard.

RUSSIAN ROULETTE GAME MODE:

In Russian Roulette mode, you get only one roll per turn and must assign a score, even if it's zero. Strategize to maximize your score, and see if you can master this thrilling mode, which has its own leaderboard.

PLUS GAME MODE:

Plus mode allows you to carry over unused rolls to the next turn. In a traditional game, you get 13 turns of 3 rolls each. In Plus mode, if you don't use all three rolls in a turn, the remaining rolls are added to your next turn. For example, using only two rolls in the first turn gives you four rolls in the second turn. This mode also has its own leaderboard.

SCORING:

After each roll, valid scores are highlighted in yellow, helping you quickly decide where to apply your results. You have thirteen turns of three rolls each. Choose which dice to keep after each roll, and at the end of three rolls, assign your score before moving to the next turn. The first Five Dice scores 50 points, with each additional Five Dice earning a 100-point bonus. Scoring 63 or more on the left side of the scorecard grants a 35-point bonus.
