Supplies For Three of More Dice Game

For Three of More you need 5 dice and a paper and pen to keep score.

Setting Up Three or More

To start Three or More, players need to agree upon how many rounds they will play.

How to Play Three or More

First, a player rolls all five dice on her turn. If there are no matches, then her turn is over and she scores zero for the round. On the other hand, if she rolls a pair then she gets to keep the pair and has one chance to reroll the rest of the dice, hoping to add to the pair. If she doesn’t add to the pair then she scores zero. On the other hand, if she did add to the pair then she scores points depending on how many more she added (see scoring).

Scoring

If you have no matches or only pairs both score 0. When you have three of a kind you score three points. If you have four of a kind you score six points. When you are lucky enough to have a roll of five of a kind, you score twelve points.

Winning Three or More

At the end of the agreed upon round, the player with the most points is the winner.
