Bar Dice is the legendary Wisconsin tavern dice game — five dice, three shakes, and no mercy — rebuilt for your phone. Easy to learn in 30 seconds, impossible to put down. Your 1s are WILD. Roll high, "farm" the dice you want to keep, and shake the rest. The highest hand each round is "Out" and steps aside. Everyone else plays on until only two remain — and those two play for horses. Take two horses and you're the Big Loser. Then someone says "again?" and you do. TWO GAMES IN ONE • Classic Bar Dice — authentic Wisconsin rules: wild 1s, farming, the "call" (say your score and how you did it), the legendary "56", the five-2s comeback, and the horse-race finale. • Ship Captain Crew (6-5-4) — lock a 6, then a 5, then a 4 in order, then load the biggest cargo. Highest cargo wins. PLAY YOUR WAY • Solo vs smart AI opponents • Pass-and-play with friends on one device • Any mix of human and AI seats, 2 to 6 players BUILT RIGHT • Plays completely offline — no internet required, ever • No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts. No tracking. • Tiny, fast, and respectful of your phone • VoiceOver support and Reduce Motion respected JUST FOR FUN Bar Dice is entertainment only — there's no real money and no wagering. Nothing is on the line but bragging rights. Grab the cup, shake twice, and slam it on the bar. Highest hand takes it.
