## What is Play Farkle?

If you want a video game that you can play by yourself whenever you want… THIS ISN’T YOUR GAME.

This app is Farkle - a dice game that’s meant to be played face-to-face with friends. It may result in loud triumphant cheers or disappointing slaps of the table, but the end result is always FUN.

Farkle is a classic dice game played with 6 real dice. Players take turns rolling the dice. Certain combinations of dice score points. The challenge is deciding whether to keep the points or risk rolling again for more points. 

Farkle is a fun game for all ages, but scoring can be a challenge. This app makes scoring a breeze, and the sound effects and game options make it even better. You can even add your own sound effects with your friends to really make the game your own.

All the features of this app are available for free. There is an in-app purchase to remove the small ads that appear at the bottom of the screen while playing a game, but that purchase is optional and does not impact any features in the app.

For your next game night, grab some dice and start farkling!

### 5/5 — Love us some Farkle!

*2026-07-31, version 7.11*

I always thought that 3 ones should be something special and this app lets us score that as 1000!  Love the commentary on great rolls and Farkles!

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-07-28, version 7.11*

Bought the large set of dice off amazon and brought it camping with our extended family (over 30 of us). My wife and I had never played Farkle before and most of the rest of the family hadn’t either. We even played a game with 9 people of various ages using this app. The app is absolutely fantastic. You can back up entries if someone changes their mind even after banking their score. The sound effects are hilarious and we plan to use a Bluetooth speaker next time so they can be heard more clearly by everyone. Without wifi we couldn’t share the game which would have been much better for those learning the game. I wonder if Bluetooth could be used to share the game instead??  Regardless, we had a blast using this well-developed app and can’t wait to play the game again at our next camping trip or family function. Thanks for the time you’ve put into this app!
