Run For It

ByAudrey Watson

Supplies Needed:

  • 6 dice
  • 2 or more players

Instructions:

Alternating turns, each player rolls 6 dice.  Looking at the dice, the player attempts to organize them into runs.  A run is a sequence of numbers, such as 1-2-3-4-5-6.  Runs must begin with the number 1.  For each number used in a run, the player scores 5 points.  Dice can only be used once when creating a run.

Examples:

  • A roll of 1-2-4-5-6-6 scores 10 points for the run 1-2.
  • A roll of 1-2-1-2-3-4 scores 10 points for the run 1-2, and 20 points for the run 1-2-3-4 for a total of 30 points.
  • A roll of 1-3-4-4-5-6 scores 0 points.

Play continues until one player reaches 100 points.
