Farkle

description Farkle Overview

Farkle is a push-your-luck dice game usually played with six dice. Players roll, set aside scoring combinations, and may continue rolling to increase the score for a turn; if a roll contains no scoring dice, the turn is farkled and the points accumulated during that turn are lost. The game has several rule variations and is also sold or described under names such as Zilch and 10,000.

help Farkle FAQ

How many dice are usually used in Farkle?

Farkle is usually played with six dice. Players roll them, set aside scoring combinations, and decide whether to continue or stop.

What happens when you farkle?

A player farkles when a roll contains no scoring dice. The points accumulated during that turn are then lost.

How does the push-your-luck mechanic work in Farkle?

After scoring dice are set aside, the player may continue rolling to build a larger turn score. Continuing is risky because a non-scoring roll loses the points from that turn.

What makes a Farkle turn end safely?

A player can stop after scoring and bank the points from the turn. If the player keeps rolling and later gets no scoring dice, the turn's accumulated points are lost instead.
