Run for it! You will need six dice for this game. Roll dice and look for runs (sequences) starting with 1 (so 1, 1-2, 1-2-3 and so on). Each die that is part of a run scores five points. There can be more than one run in each roll. For example, say you rolled following combination: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 5. You would score 5 points for first 1. You would then score 15 points for sequence of 1, 2 and 3, for a total of 20 points for that roll. The first player to reach 100 points is winner.

Play a number of rounds and then either total your points to find winner, or simply count how many rounds were won by each player.
