Rules of the Dice Game
Image: ensigame.com
To begin playing the dice game, you’ll need to find willing opponents. These are typically located in taverns or encountered when resting during travel. Once you’ve initiated a match, the next step is choosing your bet amount. While higher stakes mean bigger rewards, they also increase the risk—so avoid betting all your hard-earned coins at once.

The objective is simple: reach a set number of points before your opponent does. The required score increases with the size of the bet. Points are earned through specific dice combinations. Pressing "E" during your turn will show you the list of valid combinations and their corresponding point values.

During your turn, Henry rolls all six dice. You can select one or more scoring combinations to keep. After selection, those dice are locked and contribute to your current score. If no valid combinations appear—including ones or fives—the turn passes to your opponent.
You have the option to set aside scoring dice and re-roll the rest. This can be repeated as long as each new roll results in at least one valid combination. However, if a re-roll fails to produce any scoring combination, all points accumulated during that turn are lost, and your opponent gets the dice.

If you've used up all possible combinations but still have non-scoring dice left, you may re-roll all six again. With some luck, this allows for multiple high-scoring rolls in a single turn, dramatically increasing your total.

While chance plays a role, applying smart strategies can tilt the odds in your favor. One of the safest methods involves relying on single fives or ones, which allow you to continue rolling. The probability of getting at least one of these numbers across six dice is relatively high—more so than landing multi-dice combinations.
A practical approach is to set aside one die (usually a one or five) after each roll and re-roll the remaining. However, as the number of dice decreases, so does your chance of forming a valid combination. Once you’re down to four dice, it's often wiser to stop and bank your points rather than risking everything.

Re-rolling three or fewer dice is generally not recommended unless you're using special dice. At that stage, the likelihood of rolling valuable combinations drops significantly. Most of the time, it's better to play conservatively unless you're in a desperate situation where taking a big risk is your only option.
If you need to make a comeback quickly and your initial roll doesn’t offer strong options, consider keeping just one die and re-rolling the rest. This gives you a decent chance of improving your result. It’s not guaranteed, but it might be your best shot when facing a critical deficit.
When losing seems inevitable, evaluate whether you can still win by relying on fewer dice. If yes, continue re-rolling—but only if you're already behind and have little to lose.

Special Dice and Badges

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers ways to tip the scales even further in your favor. Special dice can be found throughout the world, obtained via quests, or purchased from merchants. Each has unique properties designed to increase your chances of rolling favorable combinations.
At the start of the game, you can choose which dice to use. Combining those with complementary effects can give you a significant edge. When selected, each special die displays its name on the board, helping you keep track of which ones are active.

Some dice are best reserved for later rolls—especially when you have fewer dice left and desperately need a one or five. They help maintain momentum when the odds are against you.

Beyond special dice, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 introduces badges—optional items that can be wagered alongside money. These provide various effects, both passive and active. Activatable abilities are indicated by an icon under the badge’s name during gameplay and become grayed out after use.

Each badge brings a different strategic layer to the game. Some allow you to multiply your score mid-turn, which is most effective when you're ahead. However, since you won’t know how many points you'll earn until the roll happens, timing and intuition are key.

Mini-games like dice poker add depth and variety to RPG experiences. While not every implementation is memorable, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 nails it with a polished and engaging experience that feels rewarding and fun.
