Rules of the Dice Game

First, find a dice game opponent. Taverns are a good place to start, or you might stumble upon one while traveling. Once you've found a willing player, decide on your bet. Remember, losing is always a possibility, so bet responsibly!

The goal is to accumulate more points than your opponent. The higher the bet, the more points you'll need to win. Specific dice combinations award points; press "E" during the game to view the point values of each combination.

On your turn, roll the dice. You might roll multiple winning combinations, but you only score points for the combinations you choose. After selecting your winning dice, your score is tallied, and your turn ends. If you roll no combinations (including ones and fives), your turn passes to your opponent.

During the selection phase, you can set aside point-yielding dice and re-roll the rest. You can continue this process as long as you roll successful combinations, adding new points to your existing total. This strategy allows you to potentially earn more points than with a single roll. However, a single roll without any combinations results in a loss of all points for that turn, and your turn ends.

If you have no remaining combinations after selecting dice, you can re-roll all six dice. With a bit of luck, you could re-roll several times, accumulating a substantial point total.

What's the Best Dice Game Strategy in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?

While luck plays a role, following these tips increases your chances of winning.

A relatively safe strategy involves focusing on rolling ones and fives. Since a single one or five allows you to re-roll the remaining dice, this approach offers consistent opportunities to accumulate points. This method often proves more successful than aiming for more complex combinations.

By using this strategy, set aside one die after each roll, if better options aren't available. Be aware that as the number of dice decreases, the chance of rolling a combination also diminishes. With only four dice remaining, the risk increases significantly; it's often better to secure your current points than risk losing everything.

Re-rolling three or fewer dice is generally too risky and yields minimal rewards. The probability of rolling three ones is low, and other combinations rarely justify the risk of losing all your points. This risk is only worthwhile with special dice (discussed below).

To maximize points in a critical situation, if your roll is unsatisfactory, consider setting aside a single die (instead of better combinations) and re-rolling the rest. While the chances of improvement are lower than your initial roll, it's still a viable option.

If luck isn't on your side, assess whether you can achieve the required points with fewer dice. If so, continue re-rolling; this should only be done when losing is already a likely outcome.

Special Dice and Badges

Special dice significantly improve your win probability. These can be found throughout the game world, as quest rewards, or from merchants. Each die has unique properties, primarily increasing your chances of favorable combinations.

At the start of the game, choose your dice wisely. Combine dice for optimal effects. Their names will appear on the board to prevent confusion. Reserve certain dice for re-rolls, guaranteeing a one or five when fewer dice remain.

Beyond special dice, badges offer another strategic layer. When initiating a game, you can choose to wager your badge along with your money. Badges provide unique effects—some passive, others activated by pressing a button (indicated by a special icon during gameplay).

Each badge presents a unique strategy. Some add excitement, such as multiplying your score. Use these strategically; for example, a score multiplier is best used when your score is already high. Trust your intuition!

The dice game in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a standout mini-game. Losing shouldn't discourage you—if you wish, use your pickpocketing skills to recover lost funds!
