Objective of the Game:
The objective of "Hohe Hausnummer" is to obtain the highest number by rolling dice and arranging the results to form a number.
Game Materials: - One or more dice (typically standard six-sided dice). - Paper and pencil for each player (to record scores).
Setup: 1. Each player gets a sheet of paper and a pencil. 2. Determine the order of play by rolling dice or another method.
Gameplay: 1. The player whose turn it is rolls all the available dice. 2. After each roll, the player may choose which dice to keep and which to roll again, aiming to form the highest possible number. 3. Players can typically roll up to three times to achieve their number. 4. Once satisfied or after the third roll, the player writes down their highest achieved number. The number is formed by arranging the kept dice to make the largest possible number.
Scoring: - The player with the highest number wins the round. - The game can be played over several rounds, with numbers from each round summed. The player with the highest total score wins the game.
Strategic Considerations: - Try to keep the highest single value from initial rolls. For example, if a "6" is rolled, definitely keep that die and work towards achieving more high values. - It might be risky to ignore an almost perfect set and re-roll instead. Assess whether it's worth gambling for an even higher number. - Plan out rolls strategically by trying to form meaningful combinations early on. This decision will inform which dice to set aside in the following rounds.
"Hohe Hausnummer" is easy to learn and requires a blend of luck and strategy for success.
