Farkle is played by two or more players, with each player in succession having a turn at throwing the dice. Each player's turn results in a score, and the scores for each player accumulate to some winning total (usually 10,000).

- At the beginning of each turn, the player throws all of the dice at once from a cup.

- After each throw, one or more scoring dice must be set aside (see sections on scoring below).

- The player may then either end their turn and bank the score accumulated so far, or continue to throw the remaining dice.

- If the player has scored all six dice, they have "hot dice" and may continue their turn with a new throw of all six dice, adding to the score they have already accumulated. There is no limit to the number of "hot dice" a player may roll in one turn.

- If none of the dice score in any given throw, the player has "farkled" and all points for that turn are lost.

- At the end of the player's turn, the dice are handed to the next player in succession (usually in clockwise rotation), and they have their turn.

Once a player has achieved a winning point total, each other player has one last turn to score enough points to surpass that high-score.
