Classic Yahtzee

One of my all time favorite games is Yahtzee. Yahtzee consists of using five dice, score sheets, and a dice cup. It is a very simple game to learn and a lot of fun. Yahtzee is played with one or more players. The goal of the game is to obtain the highest score by rolliing ones to six, three and four of a kind, full house, straights, chance and Yahtzee. All that is required is some basic math skills and hand- eye coordination. Even at that the dice are surely to fall in some scorable numerlogical pattern. Well, at least most of the time, anyway. There is a momentary suspension of the rolling and clattering sound of dice just before and as they fall. Yahtzee!


Yahtzee is a great game for families to spend quality time. On an individual basis it is a stress reliever and a good pasttime for those boring or rainy days. Yahtzee can be played hands on, or on the computer. Pogo.com has an excellent Yahtzee game called Yahtzee Party. There are also free and paid versions of Yahtzee that can be downloaded from the internet. One such free version of a Yahtzee game is All Five XP
