New to liar's dice?

One round, start to reveal

  1. 01

    Roll in secret

    Everyone shakes their cup and peeks. Your dice are yours alone.

  2. 02

    Bid on the table

    Claim how many of a face sit under every cup — not just yours. Each bid must beat the last.

  3. 03

    Raise or call

    Think it's a lie? Call it. Otherwise you have to go higher.

  4. 04

    Every cup lifts

    Wrong side of the call loses a die. Lose them all and you're out.

Ranked

Four ladders.
One number that matters.

Wild ones and straight ones are different games, so they get different queues and different ratings. Overall adds them up. The 1v1 stands on its own.

Wild ones

3–6

players, five dice each. Ones count as any face.

Straight ones

3–6

players, five dice each. A one is just a one.

1v1 Duel

10 dice

each, straight ones, head to head. Its own rating and its own podium.

Overall

Wild + straight

Every multiplayer ranked match moves it. The season podium is decided here.

  • Elo, built for tables of up to six. Every finish is scored against each player you beat and each player who beat you.
  • Everyone starts at 1000. Your first fifteen matches are provisional and move faster. After that, a rating has to be earned.
  • Leaving is losing. Walk out of a ranked match and you finish last. A dropped connection gets 45 seconds to come back.
  • A board for every ladder. The top 100 on Overall, wild, straight and the 1v1, for the season and for all time. Five rated matches put you on it.

Seasons & events

Every season, a new race

Seasons

A fresh ladder. Your rating stays.

Each season opens a new ladder at 1000, on top of your career rating, which never resets. Play ten matches to place. The top three on Overall and in the 1v1 take prizes that are never sold.

Live events

Different rules. Their own board.

Every event deals a different game. The rule set changes from one event to the next — how many dice you hold, whether ones are wild, or a twist of its own — and each runs for a few weeks with its own rating, its own leaderboard and its own prizes. You have to learn the table all over again.

Statistics

Every bid on record

Win rate and streaks are the start. Pips & Lies also tracks how often your bids hold when someone calls them, how many of your own calls land, and how you bid on every face from one to six.

  • Kept apart for wild and straight ones — they are different games
  • See your percentile among ranked players on every ladder
  • Biggest bid held, biggest bluff caught, players knocked out

    Wild ones or straight

What is on its way

The Coach

A coach that reads how you play

Every bid and every call, with the odds beside it: which calls you get right and which you should have made. Wild ones and straight ones are read apart, because they are different games.

Fair tables

A rating you can trust

  • No bots in ranked. Bots only fill chairs at private tables, and private tables never move rating, trophies or stats.
  • One queue per rule set. Wild and straight players are never mixed, and one account holds one place in line.
  • No walking away. Leave, or idle through your turns, and the match counts as last place.
  • Your say over who you meet. Block a player and the two of you are never seated together again.

Your rating starts at 1000.
