How to Play

The starting player rolls a single die. If they roll a 1, their turn ends immediately, and they score zero for that round. Any other roll (2-6) is added to their turn total. After each roll, the player must decide to either "roll" again or "hold." If they choose to "roll," they repeat steps 2-4. If they choose to "hold," they add their turn total to their overall game score, and the play moves to the next player. Play continues in this fashion until one player reaches or exceeds the target score. The first player to reach or exceed the target score, often set at 100 points, wins the game.
