Spicy Farkel Dice Game

Manufactured by: LGI – Legendary Games

Players: 2–6

Time: 30–45 minutes

Ages: 8+

Type: Dice / Press-your-luck / House Rule Variant

🎯 Objective

Be the first player to score 10,000 points by rolling high-risk, high-reward combinations.

🧰 Setup

1. You need 6 standard dice.
2. Each player needs a scoresheet and pencil.
3. Choose starting player randomly (e.g. highest roll).
4. Play proceeds clockwise.

🎲 Gameplay

• Roll all 6 dice on your turn.
• Set aside at least one scoring die or combo each roll.
• You may stop and “bank” points at any time.
• If you roll no scoring dice, it’s a Farkle – you score 0 that turn.
• If all 6 dice score, you have hot dice and may roll all 6 again.

💯 Scoring Combinations

• Single 1 = 100 points
• Single 5 = 50 points
• Three 1s = 1000 points
• Three 2s–6s = 100 × face value (e.g. three 3s = 300)
• Four of a kind = 2× three-of-a-kind value
• Five of a kind = 3× three-of-a-kind value
• Six of a kind = 3000 points
• Straight (1–6) = 1500 points
• Three pairs = 1500 points
• Four of a kind + a pair = 1500 points
• Two triplets = 2500 points

🔥 Spicy Color Bonus

If a scoring combination includes at least one colored die, apply the Spicy Bonus:

• +500 bonus points to that combo.

🌶️ Spicy Penalty (optional)

If you Farkle and at least one of the dice is colored:

• Subtract 500 points from your total score (can't go below 0).

📌 Examples

• Three 3s with one red die = 300 + 500 = 800 points
• Straight (1–6) with 2 red dice = 1500 + 500 = 2000 points
• Farkle with 2 colored dice = -500 points (if using penalty rule)

🌶️ Spicy Rules

• Spicy Farkle Penalty: 3 consecutive Farkles = -1000 points
• Spicy Bonuses:
  • Five 1s = 2000 points
  • Six 5s = 2500 points
  • Double Farkle (no score after hot dice reroll) = lose all points for that round

🧮 Getting on the Board

You must score at least 1000 points in a single turn to start banking points. (Spicier than regular Farkle!)

🏁 Ending and Winning

• First to reach 10,000+ triggers the final round.
• All others get one last turn.
• Highest final score wins.

📝 Notes

• Perfect for risk-takers who love punishment & reward!
• Customize with bonus combos or wild dice for extra spice.
