## What is Droptzee?

Every pick changes the board. Plan your path to set up full houses, straights and the elusive five of a kind. Luck still plays a part, but even a poor board can become a strong score in the right hands.

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Droptzee: pick any five touching dice from the board, then fill your score card
• Classic: roll, hold and re-roll up to three times, the traditional way

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Games of 1, 3 or 5 rounds
• A Normal board, or a smaller Hard board that leaves fewer choices
• Pass and Play for up to 4 players on one device, with medals at the end
• Your game saves automatically, so you can pick up where you left off

CHASE A HIGH SCORE
• Game Center leaderboards for every mode, board and game length
• Your own top scores on your device
• Game Center sign-in gives Player 1 your name and photo

EASY TO LEARN
• Built-in How to Play for both modes
• Tips walk new players through their first turn
• Green numbers on the score card show what your dice would score

MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
• Portrait or landscape
• Split View and Stage Manager on iPad

NO STRINGS

### 5/5 — Fun game!

*2014-12-07*

And an easy fun way to spend those spare minutes waiting for the kids.

### 1/5 — Concerned. Pop up Ads on purchased app

*2014-09-16*

I restrict what this app can access on my device and then get pop up ads.  I sure would like the game to play in its own little sandbox and leave unnecessary access to data alone.  It's only when I shut off access that I get pop up ads.  There is no reason the app would need the features I shut off to work other than this seller collects unnecessary information about my use or about me.  I will be thinking twice before I buy from this seller again.

### 5/5 — A Winner

*2014-01-03*

This is a great game that you can pick up anytime but you will have a hard time putting it down. Love it and their support is awesome. I had a small problem and they kept emailing me until it was fixed. Try finding that on other apps!

### 5/5 — Great Game with a new twist

*2013-11-28*

Dropzee is a great classic dice game that we all know and love.  It comes in the classic mode and a new mode that puts a cool new twist on the classic game.  Great family game!

### 5/5 — Easy & Enjoyable

*2013-09-15*

I'm enjoying this relaxing version of Yahtzee. Seems to be a little less chance of the dice while using skill.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2013-07-04*

Great time waster! I get sucked in and can't get out!!!!!

### 5/5 — These folks listen to their critics

*2013-06-13*

Back to 5 stars. They responded by sowing me how to turn off Kip Award notices.  Thanks. Again, best classic Yahtzee game in the Aop Store.

My favorite game app just became a huge pain in the a••.  Can't enter into a game without Game Center requesting that I join up.  Apple will not let you kill the app (just one more reason why my next phone will be a Samsung). I've disabled Game Center, but that is not good enough to stop the ads.  What a way to spoil a simple game.

### 3/5 — Great game!

*2013-03-13*

I wish it had personalization features like changing the background/dice color. Or at the very least turning down or off the sound from the dice. They're loud, and they don't match exactly when you press them. It gets annoying fast.

### 4/5 — Happy

*2013-03-07*

I love this game. I've found it to be challenging when I want it to be and just plain fun when I'm a bit mentally lazy

### 5/5 — One of my favorite games

*2013-01-26*

Love this game had it for a cpl months & games have come and been deleted (lol) but this ones a keeper especially if you like (or, like me, love) yahtzee. :) download it.
