Tips & Warnings
Winners can be decided in several additional ways. You can play a predetermined number of rounds and add each player's score together for each turn he takes for a final score at the end of those number of rounds. The other option is to play until one person wins a specified number of rounds.
The game has very little strategy involved, so for individuals that enjoy strategy games the winning and losing in click dice can be rather frustrating.
