## What is yacht?

Yachting is a poker-like game with 5 dice.
A very popular dice game with a British-born version of General.

(Purpose)
The player rolls the dice on his turn and arranges the hands of the specified combination.

There are two players, you and opponent.
At the end of 10 rounds, the player with the highest score wins.

(flow)
At the beginning of his turn, the player presses the "Roll" button and rolls five dice.

After that, press the dice that do not roll again to LOCK.

If you press the "Roll" button again, the unlocked dice will be rolled again.

You can roll the dice up to 3 times, the first time and the second time.

Roll the dice three times or if you get a good  hand in the middle, select a  hand from the  hand table and press the white square to record the score.

Once you record it, you cannot erase the score, so please choose carefully.

Also, you cannot pass without recording the score.

Even if the  hand is not completed, you must select one of the hands and record it with 0 point.

When the score is recorded, it will be the next player's turn.

After 10 rounds, the game ends when all the squares on the  hand table are filled.
