Rules for game "Kostky"

 

The game is played with six dice. One round normaly consists of three rolls. To finish the game, the player must score all required categories – it means – ones, twos, threes etc.  The categories from ones up to sixes will be fully scored by throwing at least four identical die faces within one turn. In case the player doesn´t manage to score by the last roll any of required categories in one turn, he looses the values of displayed points already thrown within the first and the second roll. On the other hand, if the player scores this category before the last – third roll, he can keep the remaining rolls and use them, when later necessary or exchange these spared rolls for points useful for increasing the final score.
