Goal
Score the most points by filling all thirteen categories.
Your turn
Roll all five dice, then hold any you like and reroll the rest — up to three rolls total. Finally, assign the dice to one unused category:
- Ones–Sixes: sum of dice showing that number. Score 63+ up top for a +35 bonus.
- Three/Four of a kind: sum of all dice (if you have 3/4 alike).
- Full house: 25 · Small/Large straight: 30 / 40 · Yahtzee (five alike): 50 · Chance: sum of all.
If dice don't fit a category you must still assign them somewhere — sometimes for zero.
