 Have Farkel, will travel!Apr 12, 2009
By Colleen
"If it's not fun, what's the point?"
My Pocket Farkel is about the size of the center cardboard of a toilet paper roll, making it easy to pack with you where ever you may go. Tuck it into the glove box, or your carry-on, or even your purse.
It comes with six regular sized dice, a pencil, a rolled up score pad, and instructions for how to play. And the game can be played by 2 or more players in less than a minute of instructions reading time.
It is a little like Yatzee in that you try to roll pairs, 3-of-a-kind, 4-of-a-kind, 5 & 6-of-a-kind, and straights. You must roll 500 points to get into the game. When it is your turn you must roll dice that score to be able to keep rolling. If you roll dice that don't score (a Farkel) you lose your turn and the points accumulated in that round. Every time it is your turn you want to roll as much as you can to gain points, but you have to decide when to pass the dice on so that you don't lose all your points with a Farkel. Once points are recorded on paper they cannot be lost. The first person to 10,000 is the winner, with everybody else getting a last chance to catch you. The person with the highest score over 10,000 is the winner.
It is really fun to play, easy to learn for all ages, and is a good bordom buster to take camping, or when you are traveling by plane or automobile, or the next family reunion or visit to grandma's house. It takes up very little space in your bag, and requires very little playing area.

Farkle is simple but deep in fun and competitiveness!!Aug 29, 2011
By ShaunHeatherRobinson
We were introduced by my in-laws to Farkel and bought it for ourselves to have at home. We have invited over friends to play and they also really enjoy the game. As stated in the intro title, Farkel is a simple game, easy to play and learn, but it is very competitive. Farkel also brings out the risk taker in you or shows just how even keeled you can be. If you want a game that's easy to learn, produces excitement, and can be played in small or large groups then Farkel is for you!!!

It's a great game for a short amount of time, and doesn't require a lot of thinking or skill. It's fun for some laughs.

By stefanismile
I got this game for my nephew and husband because I liked the name of it. Once we learned how to play we were addicted! My husband comes home every night from 12 hour shifts at work and wants to play farkel.
I am extremely glad I bought this game and it fits in your pocket for easy travel which is nice! The company is also wonderful I ordered two and only recived one right before Christmas and sent one email and without delay they sent the other one with appologies.
