Parker Brothers Yahtzee

Lots of fun, played with our kids, now play with them as adults

I bought this "add-on" simply for the colors. The dice really look cool, to me. I bought the limit allowed, so I could give as gifts. Everyone loved the new style, it makes playing the game even better. The score sheets even have a little style. The sheets are a tad bit smaller over all, and the print is definitely smaller, so glasses may be required. The "older version" of the score sheet, had the back-side printed for player game totals,(which we never used). This newer version, is only printed on one side, so it leaves room on the back for doodles, or adding your scores. The little black and red drawer, is simply for storing the dice. However, if needed, you could use the black cup portion as a shaker. (We just shake the dice in our hands, which is MUCH quieter.) :-) Very happy with this purchase, and giving it as a gift, made others happy as well.

Play often fun

I played Yahtzee as a kid with my Dad and had forgotten how much fun it was. While looking for some non-electronic games to play with my kids, I stumbled across Yahtzee and instantly remembered the good times. Introducing the game to the family tonight, I was hoping that they would enjoy it as much as I had years ago. They did not dissapoint me and after playing several games they all complimented me on the choice. Another reviewer called Yahtzee "quietly educational", and I completely agree with that term. My oldest, who since his school started letting him use a calculator in algebra and geometry has lost the ability to do math in his head, suddenly rediscovered his math skills when his score was on the line. The only thing Milton Bradley did wrong with this game was being cheap on the size of the pad of score sheets they include. Other than that, this is a classic game that has not lost anything over the years. Turn off the television or computer and play this game with people you love.

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.

There are actually people out there who haven't played YAHTZEE? In the USA? It's almost hard to believe because this is such a classic in my family. I think this is our third set. Eventually the game does get a little shabby and it is nice to have a new one. It's pretty simple -- 5 regular dice, a cup to shake them up in, a pencil, and score pads. Score pads can be purchased separately. The idea is to get the highest score by filling in points on the scoresheet -- one box each turn -- in categories like Full House, Small Straight, Three of a Kind. Sounds like Poker or some other card game? It is a lot like that. We've been playing it since the kids were little and now they are well into adulthood. It can be educational if you take the time to talk to your kids about the odds of getting a particular set of dice and how to decide which dice to re-roll. Not a lecture, please -- just a comment now and then!

My family has designated Sunday night as family game night and I purchased Yahtzee at a very good price off of a deal of the day. I had not played in years and forgot how fun this game is. In addition to playing the game, I let my children (6 and 8) keep score. I think this helps and gives them a practical application for the Math they are learning in school and teaches them how to strategize.. WE HAVE A BLAST..... and oftentimes end up with multiple days a week as "Family Game Night".

Several of my family members (both young and old) love board games. One of our favorites is Yahtzee. It is entertaining (educational for the younger set) and adds to family fun night. I bought this set because I couldn't resist the shape and colors of the new dice! The shape is unique and the colors are red and black with white dots. Feels like we are playing a new game! Love this new edition of Yahtzee!

Parfait ! Le jeu correspond totalement à mes attentes.

Juego sencillo y entretenido que cumple perfectamente las expectativas. Jugamos en familia y pasamos un rato divertido. Es un juego que no es pesado, porque no se alarga en el tiempo. Un acierto.

Questo gioco l'ho scoperto in Canada. Ho scelto di acquistare la versione in inglese per questo motivo. Nella confezione sono inclusi i 5 dadi che possono essere conservati in un cassettino, il quale a sua volta viene inserito nel tiradadi. Completa la confezione un blocchetto segnapunti.

Happy

Das beste nach langer Zeit, hatte mein altes beim Umzug verloren. Zu meinem Glück habe ich es bei Ihnen entdeckt.
