Rules

You roll 5 dices. Some of your rolled combinations will be scored (based on Scores)

For example, you roll 2, 1, 5, 5, 3 You have 3 total options to choose here:

• Take 1 x 1 = 10 and play with 4 (2, 5, 5, 3) dices
• Take 2 x 5 = 10 and play with 3 (2, 1, 3) dices
• Pass, 20 points will be added to your account

Why 20 points for passing?

Because you will exchange 1 x 1 = 10 for 10 points, and 2 x 5 = 10 for 10 points

What if I chose to play further?

If you chose one of the take options, you will play again with dices shown above. Everything will start again, for example you chose to play with 4 dices. So you will roll another 4 dice values, like for example 2, 6, 3, 4 and from this combination you don't gain nothing, so you lose the whole round!

I don't understand anything

Relax, these rules are not so easy to understand, just play it, you will catch the rules while playing!

If you played Game of 10000 you should know most of the rules of Thousand.

Game is not finished!

This is a prototype project, it is far from finishing, but I would like to finish it!
