Scoring: 1 Makin' = 50 1 B = 100 3 a = 200 3 c = 250 3 o = 300 3 n = 350 3 Makin' = 400 3 B = 500 5 makin' = 1500 6 of a kind = 2000 Makin' B a c o n = 6000

Players take turns to roll the dice. To score the first time, the player must score at least 400 points.

Set aside scoring dice and add up the point value for those dice. Reroll the non-scoring dice and set aside at least one scoring die to add to your score for that turn. The player may stop once 400 or more points are scored. If all 6 dice score, the player may reroll all 6 dice to add more to the score.

If no points are scored on a roll, the player Pigged Out and scores 0 for that turn, and play passes to the next player.

First player to reach 6000 points wins the game.
