Having Fun At Home With Dice Games

By:


Dice games are among the fun games that you can do at home. Whether you are spending the day or night with your friends or your family, there is no better way to enjoy the moment by playing games with them, especially the dice games. Dice games are usually games of chance and don't usually involve a lot of thinking or strategies. This makes it even more exciting to people because they wouldn't know what turns out at the end of the game. It is all pure luck and chance.

There are various dice games that you can play with your friends and family at home. Among these dice games include Drop Dead, Help Your Neighbor, and the famous Yahtzee dice game. All these games are equally challenging and there won't be a dull moment when you play these games.

The Drop Dead dice game requires are five dice and a notepad to keep score. The goal of the game is to have the lowest score after all players have taken a turn by rolling 2s and 5s, which make the player's score zero. Each player rolls all 5 dice and if there are any 2s or 5s showing, he scores nothing, sets the 2s and 5s aside, and rolls again with the remaining dice. The player continues to roll, eliminating the 2s and 5s, and adding up the total of the dice when no 2 or 5 is rolled. After the final die is eliminated, the next player takes his turn. Once all players have taken a turn, the scores are tallied and the player with the lowest score wins.

The Help Your Neighbor dice game is best played with six players and requires three dice and at least ten tokens per player. Each player is given a number 1-6, and each time that number is rolled, he must put one of his tokens into the center. The first player to put all of his tokens in the center wins the pot. If there are only five players, the 6 is ignored and if there are only four, the 5 and 6 are ignored. With three players, each player has two numbers, and with two players each has three. Players decide at the beginning of the game how many rounds to play, and the player with the most tokens left at the end of the game wins.

When you play Yahtzee, you need to have at least three or more people. The goal of the game is to get the highest score when you roll five dice to get certain combinations. The five dice can be rolled three times in a turn to get one of the thirteen possible scoring combinations. There are thirteen rounds in a Yahtzee game and the players decide which scoring combination to use in each of those rounds. After using a combination, it cannot be used again for the other rounds.
