Ten Thousand - The Dice Game Lite Version (also known as Farkle) is a fun and exciting dice game. Beautiful graphics and elegant game play make this a must have game for your iPod Touch or iPhone.
Using six dice, each player takes a turn rolling the dice and must set aside at least one scoring die (1's, 5's, triples, 3 pairs, or a run of 6.) The player's turn continues with the remaining dice, as long as there is a scoring number or combination.
The player's turn ends when they decide to stop and score their accumulated points or until they have a scoreless throw (they Farkle). When all six dice are scored in a turn, the player can roll them all again and continue to accumulate points. Scoring combinations (triples, 3 pairs, or a run of 6.) only count when made with a single throw of all six dice.
The first player to score a total of 10,000 or above wins the game! (As long as players with a turn left don't exceed your score.)
If you like games like Yahtzee(tm) Craps, or any other dice game with a blend of skill and luck, then Ten Thousand (aka Dice, 5000, Farkle, Farkel, Deluxe Farkel, Zonk, Zilch, Wimp Out, Hot Dice, Buzzball, Oh Crap, Greed, Squelch) is the game for you!

Customer Reviews
Finally
For those who didn't want to upgrade the OS' and were happy with the Lite version, the bugs were finally squashed.
Thanks!
Works fine for me
Just upgraded to version 1.7 and it's working fine on my iPhone 4. Thanks 3 jacks!!
Works great, now!
This is one of my favourite game apps on the iPad. Simple, clean interface that keeps stats and is easy to use. The most recent update fixed the app crashing right at startup, which is what made me uninstall it in the first place. Now it runs smoothly! Nice to have it back!
