Have you heard of "Around the Horn" - a dice game??

Question

I learned about a game called "Around the Horn" using 6 dice. If it sounds familiar to you, could you tell me the rules?? All I can remember is 1's equal 100 points... 5's equal 50....and something else. Can you please help me!!

Answer 1

It sounds very simlar to a dice game called Farkel. Lots of different variations of the rules, but the game you remember is probably some take on these basics.
