I was under the impression that this was a new game in a Jewel Case. When I received it, the game was in a CD Paper Sleeve. Other than this, the game works great and I have had no problems with it. Thanks.

Improving a legend!!!

For those who have not played Yahtzee:
The goal is simple a player rolls 5 dice (three consecutive times) to develop a "hand" based on poker rules. For instance, three 6's = 18 points or 1,2,3,4,5 = Full Straight. In each attempt you get to choose which dice to keep or put back in the cup for another roll. The wonderful thing about Yahtzee is that even though it is a game of playing the odds, luck plays an enormous part in this game, thus even a new person can destroy an experienced player with just a little luck.

For those who have played Yahtzee:
You will love this game because it is more than you have ever played before. There is the original game, plus 4 modifications.
Yahtzee - the classic version
Triple Yahtzee - Essentially 3 cards of Yahtzee on one card, with multipliers (1x, 2x, 3x)
Painted Yahtzee - A mix of colors and numbers are used here.
Battle Yahtzee - After your rolls, your opponent gets to roll INTO your dice!!!

This game has been an absolutely wonderful addition to my collection of games (nearly 100 and counting!). My wife and I play it whenever we travel...and sometimes just to be able to sit back and be a little competitive.

The sounds are excellent, the music is not terribly annoying, and the 5 different types of play keep things fresh, so you don't get burnt out too soon.

This is one of the very best values out there, period.

Fun single, internet, and hotseat play

Please don't buy this game if you hate Yahtzee. I'm not saying it's for everyone. I never play games like this, such as Solitare or Minesweeper (et al.), and I'm not some boring shut-in who plays "The Game of Life" with church-friends on Friday nights, but I couldn't stop playing once I got the CD in my drive.
The other versions of Yahtzee are fun and challenging as well. Even the simplicity of Triple Yahtzee adds a great amount of depth and strategy to the game.
I bought this for [money], which was well worth it.

GREAT FAMILY GAME

I used to love playing the board game version of Yahtzee and the computer version has me hooked! My 6 year old son, my husband and I have a family competition every night before bed. We are all vying for the High Score Board.

Great fun and challenging

I was introduced to Yahtzee through Hoyle Board Games. This version is fun and exciting. It includes five different versious of the game. It works well in single or multiple player mode. The instructions were a little vague for some of the versions, but once you play them for a while you get the gist. The colors are great as well as the action. I recommend this for the whole family. Just remember, unlike the Hoyle Board Games program, you will need the CD in the drive to play all the games, except the classic.

This game is great!

This is one of the best board games for PC. The music is great (it also plays on your CD player) and graphics are good too. It is really fun to play by yourself, or with other players or the computer. You can buy this great game at great price right here at amazon!

YAHTZEE GALORE, hehe!

OK, this is by far the best PC version of yahtzee you will ever find! No doubt about that. There are 5 versions and they don't even make you put in the CD to play the original classic version. On the other hand, I don't recommend buying it unless you are a big Yahtzee fan cuz you might get bored. I enjoy it a lot. :)
