Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Farkle Ten.
Is Farkle Ten really free?
Yes! The full game is free to play forever. No ads, no paywalls, no premium features. We just love dice games.
Do I need to download an app?
Nope. Farkle Ten is a web app that works in your browser. Add it to your home screen and it feels like a native app, but you never have to visit the App Store.
Can I play on mobile?
Absolutely! Farkle Ten is mobile-first, so it works great on phones, tablets, and desktops. Just visit the site and start playing.
How does asynchronous gameplay work?
You and your opponent each play your 10 rounds independently. No waiting for turns--just roll when you're ready and come back whenever you want. After both players finish, the scores are compared and a winner is declared.
What if my opponent takes forever to finish?
Their problem, not yours! Since you play independently, you never wait for your opponent. Finish your 10 rounds and let them catch up on their own time.
How do I challenge a friend?
From the lobby, tap the "Play a Friend" button and enter their username. They'll get a notification and can accept or decline the challenge.
Can I play against bots?
Yes! If you want to practice or just play solo, you can challenge our AI bots. They're always ready to roll.
How does scoring work?
Farkle uses classic dice scoring rules:
- Single 1 = 100 points
- Single 5 = 50 points
- Three of a kind = 100 × the number (except three 1s = 1,000)
- Straight (1-2-3-4-5-6) = 1,500 points
- Three pairs = 1,500 points
- Four of a kind, five of a kind, six of a kind = higher bonuses
For full scoring details, check the instructions page in the game.
What are achievements and how do I earn them?

How do leaderboards work?
Leaderboards track the top players by win rate, total wins, and high scores. There are daily, weekly, and all-time boards. Climb the ranks by winning games and beating your personal bests.
What are tournaments?
Tournaments are special events where players compete head-to-head in bracket-style competition. Winners earn bragging rights and special titles. Check the lobby for upcoming tournaments.
