Thank you. We were not sure because I rolled double 3's. Thank you for helping to clear it up.

<p>If I am on the home path and need a 3 to get into home, can I get in if I roll double 3's? This was my last pawn. We weren't sure if I was the winner or not.</p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-07-04)

If I am on the home path and need a 3 to get into home, can I get in if I roll double 3's? This was my last pawn. We weren't sure if I was the winner or not.

Yes (in most rules; check your specific rules for exceptions). From [Wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parcheesi#Rules)

You cannot voluntarily forfeit a roll, but you can take part of the roll if that is your only option.
