🐷 Pig Dice Strategy

About this game

Pig Dice is a simple but genuinely engrossing push-your-luck dice game that has been a favorite among probability enthusiasts and casual players alike for generations, built around a tense risk-versus-reward decision you have to make again and again every single turn. On your turn you repeatedly roll a single die, adding each result to your running turn total, and after every roll you must choose whether to bank those accumulated points permanently onto your overall score, or greedily roll again hoping to add even more, fully aware that rolling a one at any point wipes out your entire turn total instantly and hands control over to your opponent with absolutely nothing gained. The tension of that decision only grows as your turn total climbs higher and higher, since banking a modest total feels safe but conservative, while continuing to roll for a bigger prize feels exciting right up until the moment a single unlucky roll erases everything you had built up. You compete against a computer opponent that follows a reasonably sound strategy of continuing to roll until its turn total reaches a solid threshold before banking, and the first player to reach a full one hundred points across the whole match wins outright.
