Contact

Contact is a video game in the strategy genre and published by Code Works, The originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on Commodore 64.

Contact is a dice rolling game. It is played with six dice and the objective is to score 5000 points in one turn. The player gets points for the 'tokens' he/she rolls. The counters are ones, fives or 'three of a kind'. The player can keep rolling until he/she wishes to stop or until a roll has no ones, fives or threes. In the latter case, the player loses all the points of the current turn. When re-rolling, the tiles that the player chooses to keep are not re-rolled. To make things more interesting, there are some special rules, such as rolling a straight on the first roll of a turn and instantly winning the game. A three with two on the first roll allows the player to have another first roll (and thus reroll all the dice). Having all six dice as a counter at any time also allows the player to have another first roll again; this is called 'Contact'. The first player to score 5000 points wins.
