Where to Find Dice Games
The fundamentals of dice are taught during the tutorial. Beyond that, nearly every tavern and inn across the game world offers dice games. Simply locate an NPC near a tavern and initiate conversation to begin playing.
Scoring Combinations and Strategies
The objective is to reach the target score before your opponent. You start with six dice and can re-roll as many times as desired per turn. However, a roll yielding no scoring combination ends your turn, forfeiting accumulated points for that round. Each re-roll costs a die. Strategic decision-making on when to stop rolling is crucial.
Scoring combinations are as follows:
| Combination | Points |
|---|---|
| One | 100 |
| Five | 50 |
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 | 500 |
| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 | 750 |
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 | 1,500 |
| Three 1s | 1,000 |
| Three 2s | 200 |
| Three 3s | 300 |
| Three 4s | 400 |
| Three 5s | 500 |
| Three 6s | 600 |
Triple combinations award bonus points for additional matching dice. For example, three 2s are worth 200, but four 2s are worth 400, and so on.
