## What is Yatzy Yacht Lite?

Roll the dice, place your results carefully and go for the highscore! Yacht Dice Games is an addictive dice game where you can choose between classic Standard rules (same as in Hasbro Inc's Yahtzee®) or try another variant: Scandinavian (yatzy).

CPU opponents lets you play vs the artificial intelligence. The computer is no slouch, but skillful Yacht players should be able to triumph. Activate them by tapping on the robot icons when you start a new single player/hotseat game. 

To switch between the score table and the dice box on the iPhone/iPod Touch, simply swipe left and right! 

Yacht Dice Games comes with two multiplayer modes: Hotseat/Shared Device and Game Center (for 2-4 players). Challenge a friend or go for a game against a random stranger using Game Center's multiplayer matchmaking! 

With full Game Center support, you can compete against friends and the whole world for the top spots on the Leaderboards, or chase achievements to earn points and bragging rights.

As a lone indie developer, I strive for perfection in my games. If you encounter any bugs, experience any difficulties or have any suggestions on how to improve Yacht Dice Games, please contact me directly at scryb@me.com.

Note: If you purchase the optional ”Remove Ads” extra in the in-game store, the game will not load ad services at all and will stop sending any tracking data to Google the next time the app is launched.

### 4/5 — Ads won’t work

*2021-06-18*

Easy to use and love that I can play for free even if it I have to watch ads, but lately, I have been unable to watch them at all, tried on LTE, tried on Wifi and it won’t let me watch the ads to get more games.

### 5/5 — Fun-Tastic

*2019-05-06, version 2.5*

It works.  4 players on 1 iPad works. Yay

### 5/5 — Free

*2018-12-09*

No in-purchases and yet the game works well.  Thank you.

### 1/5 — Katastrophe

*2018-08-05*

3x die 6 und die App gibt 0 Punkte

### 5/5 — Fun and well done!

*2018-06-17*

Like it. Nice looking game board and smooth game-play. 🙂

### 1/5 — Ditch the Music, Ads, and Game Center Sign-In

*2017-04-17*

Three issues in about 3 seconds:

1) That music. Really? I just want a quiet game, perhaps with dice sounds. Ditch the music.

2) I have to watch videos to play games? I would much prefer paying a reasonable amount for unlimited free play.

3) Game Center sign-in? Again ... Really? Who uses that? It interrupts the app while I wait for those stupid GC bubbles to animate and allow me to hit the "Cancel" option.

I have to admit I never played the game. Problems 1-3 were too much to overcome for me once, and I certainly don't want to live with them for all time. Deleted this almost immediately.

**Developer response:** I appreciate the feedback!

1) The music can be turned off in the settings.
2) There is a paid version without ads and unlimited games! (You'll find it by clicking "more by this developer")
3) I think you really have a point here. Some people do use it, but there could be a button to activate it instead of the automatic sign-in.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2017-03-07*

The first that really captivated me about this game is the fact that the music that the developers chose to include in this is amazing. It gives a very funky feel which goes well with the game. The game in itself is pretty decent.

### 5/5 — Yacht

*2016-10-25, version 2.4.1*

It's a very good game.  Bryan is always losing.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2016-04-16, version 2.4*

Easy to play and really addictive! This is a great game :D

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2016-03-24*

Very addictive. All that 'Yacht' is supposed to be!
