- All three dice must be thrown for every turn
- The playing piece can only be moved forward if the number of the next step is contained in the sum of any combination of the dice
- If the combination allows, more than one step may be climbed in a single move
- On the descent, the exact numbers must be thrown, e.g., if the piece is on the third to last step, a 2 and a 1 must be thrown to reach home
- The first player to reach the summit may throw again
