I downloaded this game a few days ago to try and find something to pass the time. Very soon though, I was addicted to the game. I started researching some strategies to get onto the leaderboard. These are some of the things I found that are helpful.
- Passive abilities: Passives are one of the most useful items in the game. If used correctly, the stacked boosts can earn you tons of points. One of the best is the Passive Hunter upgrade. Using this, you can buy other cheap passives to increase your free restocks.
- Shop Restock Prices: Every time you roll the dice, the shop restock price is increased. During the last few rolls of your run, these might get very expensive, so the best idea is to save your rolls and click to put a flag on the item that you want. This will make it so that you do not waste any rolls, and therefore do not increase the prices.
- Low Dice, Low Numbers: Stacking passive abilities is the best way to get onto the leaderboard, but what is the best way? The dice that I used on my best runs were 5 dice with 5 dots on each. This gets you the <6 dice, the prime number of dice, the <13 roll number, the numeric only multiplier, the no 99s rolled, the reroll multiplier, and the Yahtzee multiplier. On one side of three of the dice, I added multipliers until 99. This is because of the passive that multiplies the top three dice by 10. I also used glue on those faces instead of weights because there are no weight passives.

- Beware of Incrementors: On some of my first runs using this strategy, I accidentally bought some of the incrementor passives. I did not realize until I rolled my dice, and by then it was too late. I had lost all of the <13 roll passives, the no 99’s passives, and more. I always watch what I am buying now to keep all of my buffs.
- All Quantities X2: When I first saw this passive I was amazed “All die faces and passive abilities that reference the total quantity of dice in play will instead use double the dice in play”. This may seem good, but what it means is that instead of 5 dice, it will count there being 10 dice. This is good for the >100 and >1000 dice passives, but in this case, they make you lose your <6 dice passive buffs.

- Don’t give up on a run: On the run that earned me the 36th spot on the leaderboard, I had messed up a couple of times. On accident, I replaced one of the fives on my dice with another number, so there were no fives. If there are no fives on the dice, then I cannot use the Numeric Set All Die Faces upgrade in the shop because there are no fives on the dice. After some thinking, I found a way to fix this. I swapped one of the faces on the dice with another face that was a five. Then I used the Numeric Set All Die Faces upgrade to change all of the die faces on both dice to fives. I still had over 1000 rolls left, so I kept on buying passives and rerolling. I had gotten lucky, and around the early game I had gotten the Passive Hunter, the Numeric Only upgrades, and the Scavenger upgrade that made it easier to get free rerolls. At around 800 rolls left, I had nothing to do but sit back and roll the dice. I had bought all of the passives that affected my dice except for one that got too expensive to buy. (I am playing on the free version. The leaderboard and other aspects of the playing experience may differ if you have bought the full game.)

I hope that this post was not boring to you, but if it was, you probably just scrolled. If you did read it, then thank you! I hope that you check out the game and use some of these strategies.
