About the game

What is High Score?

High Score is an ingenious dice game with unique challenges. Turning over a new challenge card tells players how to score points this round and how you can re-roll your dice. Will even numbers score 0 points this round? What effect will the vortex have this round? After the first player finishes their turn, the other players can attempt to beat their score, but risk too much and you may come away empty-handed. Whoever has the most points after seven rounds wins.
