Many gaming companies are looking for a new form of gambling, namely the ‘Pure Skill Gaming’. There have been several tryouts but so far they are almost nonexistent in the gambling market. To make a purely skilled gambling game, the biggest problem is how to maintain the payout % of the game. If there is no compensation by the RNG then surely casino operators will never add them to their websites.
It is for this that we feel that only a hybrid game, which combines RNG and the player skills to have a chance to ever become popular for the millions of slot players.
Our team is based in Belgium and here we have a very popular type of game that comes very close to a hybrid between an international slot game and a skill game. Consider them as a slot game, where u as player manually place your symbols to try to make the best combinations for the biggest wins.
These games have been very popular for the last 20 years in the offline gaming halls from Belgium but have been even more popular in the last 6 years that these games are found on Belgium casino websites. In Belgium, 70% of all casino revenue is coming from games called ‘Dice Games’.
This is a brief introduction and guide.
Dice Games: How do they work?
In total you receive 12 bars of 3 dice. The intention is to place these dice so that you can make as many combinations as possible and especially as valuable as possible. You place these dice in three or four slots. In each playfield is room for 9 dice.
Three identical dices on one of the five paylines means you have formed a winning combination. There are three horizontal paylines and two diagonal paylines per playfield. Each combination generates a certain number of points. Whether you win a prize and how much you win exactly depends on the number of points played together.
Each dice game has ten different symbols. As said, each time you have three identical symbols on one of the paylines, you get points. After all dice are placed, the total of the points is added. The minimum number of points required to win is 100. 100 points delivers twice your bet. The maximum price is 100 times the amount wagered. You win 100 times your bet when you get 1,000 points or more.
How does the scoring work on Dice games?
The goal of every game is gaining 1,000 points but of course, this is not that easy. Certainly not when you consider that the dices with one, two and three eyes only yield 20 points. You get 40 points per winning combination with the dices of four or five eyes. Even harder it goes with the dices that yield 60 points per winning combination. Winning combinations with the dice with 6 eyes or the dices with Asian characters will yield you 60 points per winning combination. There is also always one symbol, with Asiatic marks, which yields 120 points.
With the number of small value dices it's pretty easy to win 100 points but winning a lot more than 100 points seems to be a more difficult task. Fortunately, there are a number of possibilities to increase the points altogether and make more chances at interesting cash prizes.
If you know to form at least one winning combination of three identical dices in three of the four playfields, you can multiply your points by 1.5. For example, suppose you have a combination of 20 points in the first playfield, in the second playfield a combination of 20 points and in the third playfield a combination of 40 points. You have over 80 points. That's not enough to win. However, you may multiply these 80 points by 1.5. You will arrive at 120 points and then you won!
If you know to form at least one winning combination in all four slots, you can even double your points altogether. It, therefore, pays to try to form a winning combination in all four playfields. A combination provides at least 20 points. The points total of 80 and a doubling thanks to the filling of all four slots, makes you end at least 160 points. This is more than enough to win.
Another possibility to earn extra points is the 9-a-like. If you place 9 identical dices in one playfield, you get 200 bonus points. Also in this case you are already guaranteed a price anyway!
Bonus games
An important factor in the Dice games is its bonus games. They usually are a type of Wheel of Fortune, where u spin the wheel and win either points, cash, mystery games or a jackpot.
Mystery Games
Mystery games can usually be won in the bonus game and are games where the minimum of 100pts is enough to receive a maximum win. Some games even throw out a staggering 100+ mystery games, so this means that for 100 games in a row you will only need to make 100pts each game to win 100 times your bet. Players just love this feature.
What is the best dice games tactics or dice games strategy?
This depends a bit on what type of player you are. Are you a player who wants to try to beat the casino especially in the longer term? Or are you a player who mainly aims at that one time that you can win really well?The first type of player will mainly try to get a minimum of 100 points per game. To do this u want to focus on the small value dices and make combo’s like 20pts / 20pts /40pts. You can play a very long time in doing this and you will be 100% sure that you wont loose too much, but you also will not win a lot.
The real dice player will always try to go for combo’s on same symbol playfields combined with a multiplier(20pts+40pts+400pts=720pts and 2nd highest prize) or/and he will focus on getting the bonusgames. To do this it is needed somethimes to even break a certain win to have that extra chance to launch the bonusgame. The bonusgame is very important because besides points you can also win cash, mystery games or even jackpots that can go up to €100.000 or more.
