7/3/2023 0 Comments Play farkle(There is even a mini-pocket version of the game, but I can’t play it without my glasses…. If you stick a golf pencil into the cup, the game is highly transportable. And it ends your turn (and my kids will yell “TOTAL FARKLE” at you).Ī Score sheet ( We generally supply our own pencil and piece of paper for keeping score.) Rolling a Farkle (a roll with no ones, fives or combinations) means losing all points gathered in that turn. Luckily, the point chart is written on the Farkle cup, so you don’t have to memorize. (combination rolls need to be natural, no combining different rolls). You also earn points for four of a kind, straights, five of a kind and the magical six of a kind. certain combinations are worth big jumps in points… say you roll three 6′s… that’s worth 600 points. The game itself is simple… you roll, you get points, first to a set number (say 10,000) wins. (Making a note to keep her out of Las Vegas as LONG as possible.) Even when she Farkles (fails to roll a one or five), and she loses all the accumulated points, she doesn’t lose her willingness to keep trying. She prefers a slow and steady increase over the chance at raking in the big points. She will never roll again with less than 4 dice. The fewer dice you have, the lower your chances… but… if you manage to get them all, you can pick up all six dice and continue to gather points.Ī friend of mine, who is so ultra conservative with her money that she practically makes Scrooge look reckless, generally stops at one or two rolls. You can keep rolling, and accumulating points as long as a one or a five shows up. It’s simple, you roll six dice, and every time you come up with a one or a five, you set those dice aside for points, (a one is 100 points, and a five is 50) and then you have the chance to roll again with the remaining dice. See, Farkle is a game of chance… and everyone approaches it differently. You can tell a lot about a person by the way they play Farkle Dice Game.
