How the card works

Roll five dice, keep the ones you want, and reroll the rest up to three rolls in all. Then write your score in one category and cross it off.

Every category is used exactly once, so the game is thirteen turns each.

A category you cannot fill is scored as a zero, which is part of the strategy.

The upper section and its bonus

The top six rows are the numbers one through six. Each scores the total of the dice showing that number.

Getting three of each number makes sixty-three, and reaching sixty-three or more earns a thirty-five point bonus.

The sheet prints that target beside the subtotal row, so you always know how close you are.

The lower section

Three and four of a kind score the total of all five dice. A full house is twenty-five, a small straight thirty and a large straight forty.

Five of a kind is fifty, and each extra one after the first adds a hundred.

Chance is a free row: score the total of all five dice, whatever they are.

Large print

Check the large print box when you customize and the scoring grid comes out with noticeably bigger type and taller rows, which most people find easier to read across a table.

The grid is what grows. Reference panels and the fine print stay at their normal size, so nothing gets squeezed off the page, and the sheet still holds a sensible number of rounds.
