Each player takes turns (or if you have enough dice, plays simultaneously). On a turn, roll all the dice. You may then set aside any number of dice (including none or all) and roll the others. Each turn consists of up to three such rolls. After that, you mark down your score in one category (see below).
Category | Score |

Ones | The total value of dice showing 1 |
Twos | The total value of dice showing 2 |
Threes | The total value of dice showing 3 |
Fours | The total value of dice showing 4 |
Fives | The total value of dice showing 5 |
Sixes | The total value of dice showing 6 |
