A printable Farkle score sheet for up to six players and seventeen turns, with the scoring printed at the foot. The second sheet is the full scoring chart, with an example roll drawn in dice on every line, the five steps of a turn and lines for your table's own rules. Type the players' names in the sheet and they print on every page, or leave them out for a blank pad. Each sheet is 8 × 10 inches and prints on Letter or A4.

What’s in Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template
Two designs: Farkle Score Sheet and Farkle Scoring and Rules.
Your score sheets live in a sheet, one row each, with a column for every field the designs read: Game, Note, Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4, Player 5, Player 6 and Sheet. Six of those rows arrive filled in, so there is something on the design before you type a word.
How to play Farkle
You need six dice and a pen. The score sheet has a column for each player, up to six.
- You need six dice and a score sheet. Write each player's name at the top of a column, or type the names into the sheet before you print, and agree what you play to: 10,000 is usual.
- On your turn, roll all six dice and set aside at least one that scores. Each 1 is 100 and each 5 is 50, and three of a kind is 100 times the number, except three 1s, which are 1,000.
- Then choose. Bank the points the turn has made and write them in your column, or roll the dice you have left to try for more. Dice only score with others from the same roll.
- A roll with no scoring dice at all is a farkle: your turn ends, and you lose every point you made in it. If all six dice have scored, you have hot dice and may roll all six again.
- The bigger combinations are printed at the foot of the sheet: four, five and six of a kind, a straight from 1 to 6, three pairs and two triplets. Many tables also ask for 500 in one turn before a player can bank for the first time.
- When a player's total reaches 10,000, everyone else has one last turn to beat it. The highest total wins.
Printing Farkle score sheets at home
Each page is one sheet, 8 × 10 inches. On the Hobby plan, export a PDF on Letter or A4 and every row in the sheet comes out as a page of its own, with its game and its players' names printed on it. Print a score sheet for every game and the scoring sheet once.
Leave crop marks off. Each sheet keeps its own margin, so there is nothing to trim.
Plain printer paper is all a score pad needs. If your printer shrinks the page a little to fit it, the whole sheet shrinks together and every turn keeps its room.
Questions about Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Still have questions? Contact us
How much is three of a kind worth in Farkle?
100 times the number on the dice, so three 2s are 200 and three 6s are 600. Three 1s are the exception, at 1,000. Some boxed sets score three 1s at 300, so settle it before the first roll. Four, five and six of a kind each have a line of their own: 1,000, 2,000 and 3,000.
What are hot dice?
When every one of your six dice has scored in a turn, you have hot dice: pick all six up and roll again, adding to the same turn's points. It is a risk like any other roll, because a farkle on it still loses everything the turn has made.
Do you need exactly 10,000 to win?
No. Reaching 10,000 or more starts the end, and everyone else gets one last turn to pass that total. The highest score then wins. For a shorter game, play to 5,000 and write it on the Play to line of the scoring sheet.
What happens when I add Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template to a project?
The two designs, the nine fields and the six sample score sheets are copied into a project of yours, with the fields already pointed at the design. Nothing stays linked to this page afterwards, so the author's later edits never reach your copy.
What size does Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template print at?
Each sheet is 8 × 10 inches (20.3 × 25.4 cm), so it fits on US Letter or A4 with room round the edge for any home printer. The score sheet holds one game for up to six players over seventeen turns, and the scoring sheet holds the chart and the rules of a turn.
Is Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template free?
Yes. Adding it, editing it, filling it with your own cards and playtesting it online are all free. Exporting print files starts on the Hobby plan, and Print & Ship through The Game Crafter is on Indie. No template sits behind a paid plan.
Can I change the designs?
Yes. They land in your project as ordinary layouts, so you can drag an element somewhere else, put your own art behind the frame, restyle the type or rename a field. Edit a design once and every score sheet on it follows.
Can I use my own score sheets instead of the samples?
Yes — the samples are rows in a sheet, and they are there to be overwritten. Type over them, add rows of your own, or bring a CSV and match its headers to the fields.
Can I sell a game made with Ruckleby Farkle Score Card Template?
Yes. This one is ours, and you keep commercial rights to what you build from it, crowdfunding and retail included.
