Where to Play Dice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
During the tutorial segment of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, you'll be introduced to the basics of dice, setting the stage for your gambling adventures. Post-tutorial, you can find dice players at nearly every inn or tavern across the open world. To locate a game, simply visit the nearest town and seek out NPCs lounging outside taverns or inns. Engage them in conversation to start playing.
How to Score in Dice
Dice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is all about outscoring your opponent to reach the game's goal score first. You start with six dice, and you can roll them multiple times within your turn. However, be cautious; if a roll yields no scoring combination, your turn ends, and you forfeit the points accumulated during that turn. You'll also lose one die with each subsequent roll, increasing the challenge of achieving a scoring combination.
Here's how you score:
| 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, an additional matching die doubles your score. For example, three 2s score 200 points, four 2s score 400, five 2s score 800, and six 2s score 1,600.
