Rules of the Dice Game

To get started, you'll need to find fellow players, often lounging in taverns or encountered during your travels. When you propose a game, you'll set a bet, but remember, there's always a risk of losing, so keep your wagers smart rather than betting the farm.

Victory in the dice game comes from accumulating a set number of points or more than your opponent. Higher bets mean more points needed to win. Points are earned via specific combinations, which you can check by pressing "E" during the game. On your turn, Henry rolls the dice, and you'll select which combinations to score. If your roll yields no combinations, including ones and fives, the turn shifts to your opponent.

During your selection phase, you can keep dice that score points and re-roll the rest, aiming to build on your score. This strategy can lead to more points, but one unsuccessful roll can wipe out your turn's gains.

If you're left with no combinations after selecting, you can re-roll all six dice, potentially amassing a large score with a bit of luck.

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

To maximize your points, certain strategies can tip the scales in your favor. While luck plays a role, these tips focus on the most probable outcomes. Rolling a single one or five allows you to re-roll the remaining dice, offering a relatively safe way to accumulate points. The likelihood of hitting at least one of these numbers on all six dice is high, often more frequent than landing multi-dice combinations.

As you set aside dice after each roll, the number of remaining dice decreases, reducing the chance of landing combinations. When down to four dice, the risk escalates, and it's often wiser to secure your points rather than risk losing them all.

In critical situations where you need to outscore your opponent, setting aside one die instead of better combinations and re-rolling the rest can lead to a favorable outcome. This approach might not match the initial roll's potential but is worth considering. If the needed points seem achievable with fewer dice, continue re-rolling, but only if losing is otherwise inevitable.

Beyond dice, *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* introduces badges, which add another strategic layer. You can choose to play with these during the game setup, betting them alongside money. Badges offer unique effects, some passive, others activated by a button press. When active, an icon appears under the badge's name, turning gray once used.

Each badge game brings its own strategy, adding excitement. For instance, using a badge to multiply your current score during a turn is best when your score is high, though it requires balancing greed with intuition.
