Bellingham, Washington – Smart Box Design today is pleased to announce Farkle Solo HD Free 1.1.1 for iOS, a fun, fast-paced, customizable version of a popular dice game played with six dice. The goal of this Old West themed, exciting, quick tempo dice game is to score the most points in ten rounds to be the star of the saloon. Using classic Farkle Dice rules, players try to beat their best score or outscore friends. Farkle Solo HD – Free is available in the app store under the Games: Dice category for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch as well as for Android phones and tablets.

In each round of Farkle Solo HD – Free, players roll all six dice in an effort to earn points with rolls of 1’s, 5’s, 3 of a kind, 3 pairs, or a 6 dice straight. Players pull scoring dice out of play and either pass and bank points or roll the remaining dice to earn additional points. If none of the dice rolled earn points, players get a “Farkle” and lose all unbanked points. Three “Farkles” in a row cause players to lose 1000 points. Risking multiple rolls can help players score big.

Farkle Solo HD – Free allows game setting customization enabling players to turn on and off or adjust points earned for: 4, 5 or 6 of a kind, The Break In Score – or Minimum Score accepted, Three Pairs Score, Triple Farkle, and more. A comprehensive Game Stats board allows gamers to easily access their own scores and share scores with others on Facebook, twitter, or email, via the “Brag” feature. Compete against others and compare scores via Game Center’s Leaderboard. Farkle Solo HD – Free uses 100% dice randomization to prevent cheating. Each roll uses a robust randomization engineer-created algorithm.

The Old West theme of Farkle Solo HD – Free, takes place in the High Roller Saloon and features rich graphics, smooth animation and fun music and sound effects that immerse the player in a world of high stakes dice in an old western town.
