A simple 2-player game of Poker Dice, made as a test. By default you play against a simple computer, but you can change to play against another local player (you'll need to restart the game).
There is no automatic end to the game, but score will be kept as long as you don't refresh the page or restart the game.
Each round consists of one player trying to make the best hand possible, then the other player attempting to make a better one. Whoever makes the best wins the round and a new one starts.
To make a hand, the player first throws all 5 dices, then may reroll any number of them for a second throw, and then for a third. Click on a dice to lock/unlock it for the next throw.
You may choose to keep your hand before having used all rerolls, and there are no restrictions on which dice you can reroll.
These are ranked from best (top) to worst (bottom). Each hand beats all hands below it in the table.
If the two hands are the same, then the one with the highest dice numbers wins, checked in the order given by the tiebreaker column (eg 4 4 4 1 2 beats 3 3 3 5 6 as 4 > 3).
| Hand | Requirement | Example | Tiebreaker |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 of a kind | 5 identical results. | 3 3 3 3 3 | The 5 dices. |
| 4 of a kind | 4 identical results. | 3 3 3 3 6 | The 4 dices, then the stray dice. |
| Full House | A 3 of a kind and a pair. | 3 3 3 4 4 | The 3 of a kind, then the pair. |
| Straight | All results form an unbroken sequence. | 1 2 3 4 5 | 2 3 4 5 6 beats 1 2 3 4 5 (there are no other possible results). |
| 3 of a kind | 3 identical results. | 3 3 3 4 6 | The 3 dices, then the highest stray dice, then the lowest stray dice. |
| 2 Pairs | Two different pairs. | 2 2 3 3 6 | The highest pair, then the lowest pair, then the stray dice. |
| Pair | 2 identical results. | 3 3 4 5 6 | The 2 dices, then the stray dices going highest to lowest. |
| Bust | Anything that doesn't fit the other hands. | 1 3 4 5 6 | The results going highest to lowest. |
