Threes is a pass-and-play dice game for the table. No screens to hide behind, no waiting for a match online, just one phone, five dice, and everyone taking turns. Each turn you roll five dice. Every die scores its face value, except one thing: rolling a 3 scores zero. Hold at least one die after each roll, re-roll the rest, and keep going until all five are locked in. Lowest total wins the round. Tie for the lead? Play a tiebreaker round at double stakes. Roll five sixes on your very first throw of a turn and you shoot the moon, an instant win. Threes plays 1 to 8 people on a single device, with real 3D physics-simulated dice that tumble and settle exactly like the real thing. Pick your dice color and table finish in Settings to make it yours.
