If multiple players have one dice left, then they all must roll and guess the sum of all the dice. The closest to the sum wins.  

Bidding and Challenging

  Each player has two choices during their turn: to raise a bid or challenge the previous bid. Raising the bid means either increasing the quantity, or the face value, or both.

• The player may bid a higher quantity of any particular face, or the same quantity of a higher face.
• The player may bid a higher quantity of the same face, or any particular quantity of a higher face.
• The player may bid a higher quantity of the same face or the same quantity of a higher face.
  
  

If the current player challenges the previous bid, all dice are revealed. All of the dice for that bid are counted, 1s count as wildcard die and count towards the bid. If the bid is at least as many of the face value and any 1s are showing as were bid, the bidder wins. Otherwise, the challenger wins. The player who loses a round loses one of their dice. The loser of the last round starts the bidding on the next round. If the loser of the last round was eliminated, the next player starts the new round.
