Editorial Review
Anyone who's ever done it knows the indescribable feeling--getting Yahtzee in one roll! Of course, this five-of-a-kind phenomenon only happens once in a blue moon. The rest of the time, players must be content with a three-roll full house, large or small straight, or any other combination of five dice. In this seductive game of luck and strategy, players have three tries each turn to roll dice in hopes of obtaining the elusive Yahtzee--or racking up points in one of the 12 other scoring categories. For a real challenge, go for a bonus Yahtzee--two or more in one game! This parlor classic has captivated and vexed players, young and old, since 1956. Game includes five dice, dice cup, 10 bonus chips, score pad, and instructions (English and Spanish). For one or more players. --Emilie Coulter

Great Family Game! Highly Recommended! December 6, 2008
"Yahtzee" remains one of the all time great family games. We have a lot of more complicated and newer games, but more often than not no one can agree on which game to play and we tend to default back to Yahtzee.
The rules are not too compliacted and the game play moves fairly quickly, but still allows for talking around the table.
Highly recommended!
Entertaining for Both Adults and Children December 6, 2008
Yahtzee is an absorbing game that can be enjoyed by adults as well as by children. If your company has an annual Christmas toy drive for children who would otherwise not receive a present, this would be a great gift to add to the pile. In addition to being fun, this game would help disadvantaged children develop their math skills, learn to estimate probabilities of getting various dice combinations, and hone their strategic thinking abilities.
You can't go wrong with YAHTZEE! November 24, 2008

If you haven't played Yahtzee before, where have you been?? I remember playing this while growing up and still love it to this day. It is a game that anyone can play and great for family and friends. I picked it up recently, because we had lost ours in a move and the kids kept asking for it again. We enjoy playing it on weekends or evenings instead of flipping through the channels on the TV. It's also nice that there is no limit to how many people can play. A TRUE CLASSIC of a game that it a must for your collection.
Cheap and Kids Love It June 24, 2008
Over the years I've found that Yahtzee is one of those timeless classics that kids really love. They enjoy throwing the dice and dig the sound of dice jostling about in the container. It does assist with basic math skills--at least a little--and draws on the competitive instincts of young boys in particular. Sometimes, with really antsy children, I let them stand and toss their dice against the wall which adds to their enjoyment. Besides, the price of the game just can't be beat. It sure as heck is a better use of time that your average video game.

this game is a lot of fun for all ages... I just don't think that 5 dice, a plastic cup, and a special Yahtzee pad of paper should cost $7.99
