Overview

The Game is played as follows:

You get three rolls of the dice to get the roll you want.  You can Hold a specific die by clicking it and it's color will change to Grey, this die will not be rolled on subsequent rolls.  Likewise, you can Un-Hold a die by clicking the Held die and it's color will return to White, this die will then be rolled on subsequent rolls.  Once you have the Dice roll you want, or you have done 3 rolls, you must click on the scoring you wish to score. (Example: Click the Ones to score Ones).  Once you choose your Scoring, the Focus will switch to the next player (if there is more than 1 player playing).  Continue until all of the scoring is complete and Game Over appears under all Player names.
