Yahtzee original game

A full house in Yahtzee occurs when you roll five fair dice and it should be a result of two dice showing one number and the other three showing the same different number. Their friends got really attached to the game and that's when the couple approached Edwin S.

Lowe to see if he could produce sets that they could give to their friends as gifts. Lowe saw potential in the game and acquired the rights and renamed it "Yahtzee. A small straight in Yahtzee is the combination of dice that are consecutive numbers. For example, if you roll a 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6, you could score this as a small straight. A small straight is worth 30 points.

In order to get a Yahtzee every time, try to get 63 points in the upper section early in the game. To maximize your score, it's important that you balance the scores between upper and lower sections. To get a Yahtzee, leave your chance roll until late in the game when there are fewer options. Yahtzee New game Fullscreen. Roll dice You.

Play Yahtzee Free Online Rules The winner of the game is the player that scores the highest number of points. After each roll, the tentative scores are visible on the board. A full house consists of a pair and a three of a kind, and receives 25 points. A large straight is a sequence of 5 dice, and is scored as 40 points. Chance is the sum total of all the dice, and can be used when no other play seems good.

A Yahtzee is five of a kind. It's scored Double Yahtzee If you roll a subsequent Yahtzee, you have the chance to receive a Double Yahtzee, which adds a hundred points to your score. If that number is not available, you must choose a lower box score. If no scores are available there, we let you choose a score from the upper box. Try only going for Chance if it's either 25 points or above, or if you have no other good plays. Any questions, comments or requests about the game, please send them to admin cardgames.
