Controls

You play with two choices each turn: roll or bank. Tap to roll the die and add the result to your turn total, and tap to bank whenever you want to keep those points.

Everything hinges on the number one:

• Rolling adds the die's value to your turn total, but only if you avoid a one. You can keep rolling as many times as you dare.
• Banking locks your turn total safely into your score and ends your turn. Once banked, those points can never be lost.

Roll a one and you lose the entire turn total you had built up, and your turn ends immediately with nothing gained.

The first player to reach 100 banked points wins. The computer's risk-taking grows across eight difficulty levels.

Tips

• Bank around twenty points a turn. Aiming to bank once your turn total reaches roughly twenty is a solid balance, since pushing much further sharply raises the chance a one wipes everything out.
• Play the scoreboard, not just the odds. If you are far behind late in the game, taking bigger risks makes sense, while a comfortable lead means banking early and safely to protect it.
• Push harder when you're behind. When the computer is close to a hundred and you are not, a cautious turn won't catch up, so that is the moment to keep rolling and gamble for a big score.
• Bank a good total right away when ahead. Protecting a lead is worth more than extending it, so if you are winning, lock in points early rather than tempting a one.
• Don't chase a huge turn out of greed. The longer you roll, the more likely a one appears, so a string of good rolls is a reason to bank, not a reason to believe your luck will hold.
• Watch the computer's risk level. At higher levels the computer pushes for bigger turns, which can leave it exposed, so a steady banking strategy often beats an opponent that overreaches.
