Start playing either a single-player game or against up to 3 opponents. If you play multiplayer, the players have to be on the same computer and take it in turns to play. The four-player action is fantastic - if you donât own the dice game, you can have fun with your friends and family on this online version.
The graphics also look brilliant with smooth dice animations, and a scoreboard that is easy to understand. There is also some classy music to listen to whilst you play!
Basic Yahtzee gameplay
The premise of Yahtzee is simple - you roll 5 dice and must try to create different combinations like a full house, large straight, or three of a kind. For each dice roll, you must select one of the scoring categories - this is why strategy is important. Rolling the dice is pure luck, but selecting your hand requires skill.As with the standard game, if you score a Yahtzee (5 of the same number), you score 50 points. Also remember that if your left-hand column scores are greater than 65, you gain a bonus of 35 points too. Use this to your advantage and try to create the best combinations.
Different combinations of Yahtzee
Yahtzee Online is a game that has a variety of different scoring combinations. The left-hand side contains number scores - you must count how many dice you have of one number, and add them together to get your score. For example, rolling 4x fours would be a score of 16.The right-hand side contains the specialist scores including:
- Three of a kind
- Four of a kind
- Little straight (four numbers in a row i.e. 1,2, 3, 4)
- Big straight (five numbers in a row i.e. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
- Full House (two of one number, three of another number)
- Chance (score of your five random dice added together)
