The player with the most points at the end of a round wins. If multiple rounds are played, add the round scores together.
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 |
|---|---|
| Aces | 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 |
| One pair | If you have a pair of dice of the same rank, score the sum of those dice values |
| Two pair | If you have two pairs of dice, score the sum of those dice values |
| Three of a kind | If you have three dice of the same rank, score the sum of those dice values |
| Four of a kind | If you have four dice of the same rank, score the sum of those dice values |
| Small straight | If you have the combination 1-2-3-4-5, score 15 points |
| Large straight | If you have the combination 2-3-4-5-6, score 20 points |
| Full House | If you have a set of three and a pair of a different value, score the sum of all dice values |
| Yatzy | If you have five dice of the same rank, score 50 points |
| Chance | Score the sum of all dice values |
If, at the end of the round, the sum of all scores from the categories Aces, Deuces, Threes, Fours, Fives, and Sixes is at least 63, take an extra 50 points.
