Description

Play the classic dice game YAHTZEE, against a computer opponent named Bill. The objective of the game is to get the most points by getting the right combinations of dice. In each turn a player may throw the dice three times, and can hold the dice he wants to keep to the side. E.g. if a player throws 6,6,2,3,1 he can choose to keep 6 and 6, and just throw the 2,3,1 dice again, to try to get as many sixes as possible. The available combinations are: Ones: Get as many ones as you can Twos: Get as many twos as you can Threes: Get as many threes as you can Fours: Get as many fours as you can Fives: Get as many fives as you can Sixes: Get as many sixes as you can If you get a total of 63 or higher from the above combinations you will get a bonus of 35 extra points. To get 63 points you need on average to get three of each combination, e.g. three ones, three twos etc. The other combinations are: Three of a kind: Get three of the same kind Four of a kind: Get four of the same kind Full house: Get two of the same kind and three of another kind Small straight: Get four in a row, e.g. 1,2,3,4 or 2,3,4,5 or 3,4,5,6 Large straight: Get 5 in a row, either 1,2,3,4,5 or 2,3,4,5,6 Chance: You can use anything for this, it's just a sum of your dice. Good when you don't have anything else. YAHTZEE: Five of a kind. This will always give you 50 points, no matter what number you get five of. Enjoy!

This was working just fine, Yahtzee and all the other games linked on this site until it became infected with malware that redirects to a bogus Google search page. DO NOT INSTALL or go to this site until the developer can confirm it's been fixed. I've had to reset my browser settings 3x now.

I don't like that it is decided for you where to put particular rolls. I want to decide that. Example, on the first roll, I got a small straight, it immediately gave me 30 points, I wanted to try for the large straight, and wasn't given that chance, same with 3 6's, I wanted to try for more, wouldn't let me. This app is gone from my computer as soon as I write this.

Does not seem to be based on true probability which makes it kinda meaningless.

I agree w/Alan Harder& I will add more to the negativeness of this kool game. It is a fact the game/computer is systematically rigged. Any player can have an approx. 3 to 1 win ratio. At the end of 15% of the games, Computer Bill's wins comes from a back to back "4 of a kind", large-str8 or a "YAHTZEE", or 2 in combo in its ending game wins. The fact there is a fix & the way Computer Bills uses 'small & large straights' as its key 2 uses i the very beginning of the game leaving the top 1's thru 6's of the game board to fend for itself. The system needs overhauling big time. I am tired of its useless tactics. I have since stop playing this game. PEACE!

I really enjoyed this game at first, but the dice don't roll randomly; there's a very distinct trend to the numbers that come up. Where's the random number generator? Pluses: silent dice, playing against a computer opponent (for the competitive among us- haha), the red number possibilities on the score card, clicking on the dice to keep and get rid of select ones as opposed to dragging (easier on the hands).

I have played different yahtzee games that were better.

My biggest issue with this game is that the strategy of the opponent is stupid. For example, when the computer hits a small straight, it takes the score instead of keeping the small straight and trying for a large straight. Also, when hitting four of a kind, when both three of a kind and four of a kind are open, it uses the score for three of a kind. Or when it has to choose a slot to take a zero, it will choose three of a kind instead of four of a kind. There are other strategy mistakes the computer opponent makes, too. The net effect is that, unless you are really unlucky with the dice rolls, you can win almost every time.

Thank you to whomever created this game for free. Like Gordon said, it has no bonus for extra Yahtzees. The sound thing is not a big deal but the interface is pretty bland. Not very attractive.

I't okay for a free version! No sound and no scoring for extra Yahtzees.
