How to play classic dice games
In a classic dice game, you play on 3x3 grids. For each turn, you receive a column of three dice to place in the grid. Your goal? Create lines of identical symbols, horizontally or diagonally. Each validated line earns you points, and some can even trigger special features.
But that's not all: certain combinations activate minigames, Mystery games or wheels. These special sequences can boost your score and bring you closer to the jackpot.
Chip's little tip: You can't tell the difference between classic dice games and dice slots?
Don't panic, I've put together another dice slot guide for you! Find out how they work and choose the format that suits you best. It's your turn!
Features you need to know about
Behind their apparent simplicity, classic dice are full of surprises. Here are some of the features you'll come across most often:
- Mystery games: the moment when everything can change. This special part can be your ticket to maximum winnings.
- Multipliers: each round, you can score points on one or more grids. And the more you string together the winning lines, the higher your score. 3 grids filled? Your total is multiplied by 1.5. 4 grids filled? Your score is doubled. And if you fill an entire grid with 9 identical symbols, you win 200 extra points. Suffice to say that every column of dice can really make a difference.
- Minigames: some games trigger minigames, such as wheels to be spun to win a prize, or choices to be made between several suggestions. These moments add a real buzz to the game!
💡 Before each game, don't forget to take a look at the game menu to discover: the winnings table, special symbols and access conditions for the various features and minigames.
