Gameplay
Each player takes turns rolling five dice. On every turn, you may roll the dice up to three times, choosing after each roll which dice to keep and which to reroll. Your goal is to create one of the available scoring combinations.
After your final roll—or whenever you\\\'re satisfied with your dice—you must choose an unused category on your scorecard and record your score. Every category can only be used once, so deciding when to take a high score or accept a low one is a key part of the strategy.
The game continues until every player has filled all scoring categories. The player with the highest total score wins.
