I’ve been looking for a good Yahtzee game for a while now. This is the best I’ve found.
It took a long time however, this game is back on track and better than ever
I like the variations and simplicity.
Graphics and 3D physics are superb.
This app is no longer fun. The developer claims they are looking for a new provider to support multiplayer and top scores but I'm having a very hard time believing this. It's been many months we've been without this functionality and still no resolution. I would recommend not using this app and moving on to one of the many other Yatzy games.
Love all the ways you can play
*UPDATED*
Thanks for the awesome update. The small and large straight issue is now conventional Yahtzee rules. Soooo much better. Game runs great and super fun. 5 stars!! 😃
So the scoring was obviously done by someone from Pluto. I can deal with some of the tweaks although not well thought out. Like 3 of a kind and 4 of a kind should total all dice just like you did with the full house. Good idea and novel. Just not consistent across the board. Now the real problem is the small and large straight. In response to the reasoning you gave to ABWill’s review earlier. Just call it short straight and long straight and fix it to normal scoring. Be a little creative in your wording if your worried about a mean ol lawsuit. The odds of getting that second straight in your game is almost impossible after getting the first. Ruins it honestly. Just admit your scoring is bad, man up and fix it and move on with a well done game and quit being a condescending, defensive and argumentative person. Just give the customers what they are begging for. Sheeeeeezz

You have some valid points. I made the scoring the same as the official Yatzy rules online and they call the straights Small and Large and having thought about the confusion this is causing vs the more familiar scoring system then I should really rename them Low Straight and High Straight. I disagree that it's impossible to score both straights though; you just have to prioritize them when you get a change and it's not easy but they're scored highly for that reason. I will consider switching to the more familiar four dice Small Straight for 30 points and five dice Large Straight for 40 points in a future update seeing as it's causing so much backlash. Thanks for your input.The small straight is not a small straight. It’s just another large straight. I hate it.
A small straight ( in hand) is worth zero, a large straight also worth zero. Can SOMEONE please tell me the secret to a straight!
The games does not recognize small straights, other then that the game is fun.

Small Straight in this game is 1-2-3-4-5 and a Large Straight is 2-3-4-5-6. You're thinking of Yahtzee rules and this game is Yatzy. Thanks!
