Dice games come in many forms. Some are played with cryptocurrency on a screen, some at a casino table, and some at home with friends. This guide compares the main options, explains how each one works and points you to the detailed guides for each game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to play for money, the two most useful groups are crypto dice and casino dice games such as craps and sic bo. The home games at the end are included for context, not for gambling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

House edge figures are typical values. The exact edge depends on the bet and the game version, so always check the rules shown in the game before you play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto dice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crypto dice is a game where you bet cryptocurrency on a roll. You choose a target number, pick whether the roll lands under or over it, and place your bet. The win chance and the multiplier<\/a> change with the target: the further the target from the middle, the lower the win chance and the higher the payout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto dice is different from casino dice in two ways. First, the round takes a second and the controls are a slider and a button. Second, many platforms are provably fair, so you can check each result against the server seed and client seed the site publishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Craps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Craps is the best-known casino dice game. Players bet on the outcome of rolls with two dice. The shooter rolls, and the bets on the table depend on the result: some bets win on the first roll, and others depend on a point number being rolled before a seven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Craps has more bets than most dice games, and their house edges differ a lot. The pass line bet has a house edge of about 1.41%, which is one of the better options on the table. Many side bets have much higher edges, so it is worth checking the odds before you place them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sic bo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sic bo is a casino game with three dice. The player bets on totals, on specific numbers, on combinations or on triples. Bets are placed on a layout that shows the payout for each bet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sic bo is easy to learn and fast to play, but the bets vary a lot in value. Before you place a bet, check its payout and its house edge in the game’s table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
