Plume F · Dice: name a crest

Crestroll

Name your crest before the first throw: two pairs, a short run, a full nest, four alike, a long run or five alike. Then you have three throws of five dice, keeping any you like between throws. Make the crest and it pays at the price printed beside it.

  • Kind: Five dice, three throws
  • Swing: By crest

How Crestroll plays

  1. Before the first throw, name one crest. You cannot change it during the round.
  2. Choose a stake and press Throw. All five dice are thrown. Tap any dice to keep them, then throw the rest again. You have three throws in all.
  3. As soon as the dice make your crest, the round ends and pays the stake times the number below. If the third throw does not make it, the stake is lost.
  4. Best keep marks the dice to keep for the best chance of making your crest from where you are. It is worked out exactly.
  5. The chance beside each crest is for three throws with the best keeps every time.

What comes back

Back as a multiple of the stake, with the exact chance over three throws
CrestBackChance
Two pairs
two different faces showing at least twice each (four or five alike also count)		1.25×77.2%
Short run
four faces in a row: 1-2-3-4, 2-3-4-5 or 3-4-5-6		1.55×61.5%
Full nest
three of one face and two of another (five alike also count)		2.6×36.6%
Four alike
four or five dice showing the same face		3.3×29.1%
Long run
all five in a row: 1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6		3.7×26.1%
Five alike
all five dice showing the same face		21×4.6%

Example: a full nest named at a stake of 40 brings 104 sheen back when the dice show three of one face and two of another.

Good to know

The rarer the crest, the more it pays and the more rounds it takes to come up. Five alike comes up about once in twenty-two rounds even with the best keeps.

Sheen is a play unit with no cash value. It cannot be bought, swapped or turned into anything. If it runs below 200, Preen tops it up to 4,000 for free, with no wait. Results here say nothing about how you would do at real-money gambling, and they are not a reason to try it.

Need a break? The Pause key in the header closes all six plumes on this device for as long as you choose. The Roost has check-ins, a round limit and calm mode.
