Rules of the Dice Game

To participate, seek out fellow players in taverns or during your travels. When you propose a game, you'll need to set a bet. It's wise to be cautious with your wagers, as there's always a risk of losing. The objective is to accumulate a set number of points before your opponent, with higher bets requiring more points to win. Points are scored through specific dice combinations, which you can review by pressing "E" during the game.

On your turn, you roll the dice and select the combinations you want to score. If your roll doesn't yield any combinations, including ones or fives, the turn passes to your opponent. You can set aside dice that score points and re-roll the others, adding to your total score as long as you continue to roll successful combinations. However, a roll without any combinations will result in losing all points for that turn.

If you have no combinations left after selecting dice, you can re-roll all six dice. With luck, multiple re-rolls can lead to a substantial point accumulation.

What’s the Best Dice Game Strategy in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?

Maximizing your points often involves strategic play. While luck plays a role, following these tips can improve your outcomes. A reliable strategy is to set aside a die showing a one or a five, as these allow you to re-roll the remaining dice. The probability of rolling at least one of these numbers is high, making this a safe way to accumulate points. However, with fewer dice, the risk increases, so it's crucial to balance risk and reward.

Re-rolling three or fewer dice is generally risky and less rewarding. The chance of rolling three ones is slim, and other combinations may not justify the risk. This approach is best reserved for when using special dice.
When aiming to overtake your opponent in a critical situation, consider setting aside one die instead of better combinations and re-rolling the rest. This method can offer a better outcome than your initial roll, though the chances are lower. If your needed points seem achievable with fewer dice, continue re-rolling, but only when losing seems inevitable otherwise.
