High Scores?

I wonder what the (theoretical and actual) highscores are. I got extremely lucky today scoring 365 (Table 649145115), before that I think it was 335.

Out of curiosity I had a short chat with an AI. After explaining the rules the result was 1.030 . Ok I explained again that visited field only score once in the game and could not be scored/visited again (pretty sure I mentioned in the before).

Now the result is more what I expected and is 395. This assumes of course the best/ideal dice rolls possible each time.

So 365 is pretty near and a really great score!

Just discussed this with a colleague and found out, 440 is the max points given perfect rolls.

For example:
Your first endpoint of movement is the 25 in the first row, second column.
For the other 17 turns you move only 1 field counterclockwise.

-> So you gather the 18 most valuables numbers which totals to 440.

Thanks, that approach seems convincing!
18 max moves due to 36 fields, and havesting the highest numbers.
4x30 = 120
8*25 = 200
6*20 = 120
-------------
440
Can be so easy....
