Where to Play Dice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Your introduction to dice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 comes during the tutorial, where you'll grasp the fundamentals and learn some basic strategies. Once you're past the tutorial, you can find dice players at nearly every inn or tavern across the open world. If you're unsure where to look, simply visit the nearest town and seek out an NPC lounging outside a tavern or inn. Engage them in conversation to start a game.

How to Score in Dice

The objective of the dice game is to accumulate points and outscore your opponent. Each game has a target score, and the first to reach it wins. You begin with six dice, which you can roll multiple times during your turn. However, if you roll and fail to achieve any scoring combination, your turn ends, and you forfeit all points earned in that turn. It's crucial to know when to stop rolling, as you'll lose one die with each roll, making it progressively harder to score.

Here are the scoring combinations:

Combination	Points
1	100
5	50
1, 2, 3, 4, 5	500
2, 3, 4, 5, 6	750
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6	1,500
Three 1s	1,000
Three 2s	200
Three 3s	300
Three 4s	400
Three 5s	500
Three 6s	600

For triples, scoring doubles if you roll an additional matching die. For example, three 2s score 200 points, but four 2s score 400, five 2s score 800, and six 2s score 1,600.
