I Can't Believe It's Not Farkle!

How to Play

The Objective

The goal is to score as many points as possible before you run out of banks. You begin the game with 10 banks.

Your Turn

A turn consists of the following steps:

1. Roll the Dice: At the start of your turn, you can only roll the dice. Press the "Roll Dice" button to begin.
2. Select Scoring Dice: After the roll, you must select one or more dice that form a scoring combination (see "Scoring" below). Any dice you select must be part of a valid scoring group. The dice you select will be temporarily "banked" for the turn, and their score will be added to your current turn score.
3. Choose Your Next Move:

Roll Again: You can choose to roll the remaining, un-banked dice. This allows you to build on your current turn score, but you risk rolling a Farkle.

Bank Your Score: You can choose to end your turn and "bank" the points you have accumulated. This adds the Turn Score to your Total Score and consumes one of your available banks. After banking, the Perk Shop will open.

Single Dice:

Special Rolls

Farkle!

If your roll results in no possible scoring combinations, that's a "Farkle!" You lose all points you accumulated during that turn, and your turn ends immediately.

Hot Dice

If you manage to score with all the dice you have in play, you have "Hot Dice!" All the dice are reset, and you get to roll all six again to continue your turn.

The Perk Shop

After you successfully bank your points, the Perk Shop will open. You can spend your Total Score to purchase powerful, single-use perks.

Game Over

The game ends when banking your score drops your banks remaining to 0. Your final score is recorded, and a new game will begin!
