Classic Yahtzee for Ages 8 and Up, 2 or More Players

The fabulously famous dice game, Yahtzee, continues to delight millions of players, having been introduced over 50 years ago. This edition boasts the same styling as the original game, featuring an aluminum-rimmed dice cup, five dice, a score pad, and bonus chips. The objective of the game is to score the most points by rolling five dice to make certain combinations. Players can roll the dice up to three times in a turn, attempting to achieve one of the 13 possible scoring combinations. The player with the highest grand total at the end of all 13 rounds emerges victorious. The game allows players to strategize, whether they choose to go for a full house or risk it all for a Yahtzee roll.

The classic Yahtzee game is the best-selling and most famous dice game of all time, with families and friends enjoying this American icon since the fabulous 50's. While luck plays a significant role in Yahtzee, strategy makes a huge difference. Each combination can only be scored once, and the number of different combinations that can be scored is equal to the number of turns in the game.

The gameplay is straightforward: on your turn, you roll all 5 dice. If you're not satisfied with the result, you can keep any amount of dice and re-roll the rest up to 2 more times. The game ends after each player has had 13 turns and filled every box in the column with a score or a zero. The player or team with the highest total score for all games (up to six) wins.

It's worth noting that the odds of rolling a "Yahtzee" (5 OF A KIND) on your first roll are a staggering 1295 to 1, so players shouldn't expect to see that happen often. The game comes with a dice cup with an aluminum rim, five white dice, a score pad, eight bonus chips (4 red, 4 yellow), a storage tray, and an instruction sheet.

In conclusion, Yahtzee is an all-time family favorite, offering a perfect blend of luck and strategy. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the game, the timeless appeal of this classic dice game is sure to keep you entertained for years to come.
