Where to Play Dice in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
Your introduction to dice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 begins during the tutorial segment, where you'll learn the fundamentals of the game. This initial training will equip you with a solid understanding of the mechanics and strategies involved.
As you venture into the open world, you'll find dice players at almost every inn or tavern. To locate them, simply visit the nearest town and look for NPCs lounging outside these establishments. Engage them in conversation to start a game.
How to Score in Dice
The dice game in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is all about scoring points to outdo your opponent. Each game has a target score, and the first to reach it is the winner. You begin your turn with six dice, which you can roll multiple times. However, be cautious: if a roll yields no scoring combinations, your turn ends, and you lose all points accumulated during that turn. Additionally, you lose one die per roll, making subsequent rolls more challenging.
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, additional matching dice will double your score. For example, three 2s score 200 points, four 2s score 400, five 2s score 800, and six 2s score 1,600.
