Great Game!
This is a great game that I enjoy very much. Howerever, since it is compatible with only Windows 95 & 98, I have been unable to update my software if I want to keep playing it. I would appreciate it sooooooooooo much if you would acquire an updated version so that I can bring my system into the 21st century! I have tried to install it on a computer with a newer operating system and it does not work. Thanks for a great game. I hope I can continue to play it.

Improving a legend!!!
For those who have not played Yahtzee:
The goal is simple a player rolls 5 dice (three consecutive times) to develop a "hand" based on poker rules. For instance, three 6's = 18 points or 1,2,3,4,5 = Full Straight. In each attempt you get to choose which dice to keep or put back in the cup for another roll. The wonderful thing about Yahtzee is that even though it is a game of playing the odds, luck plays an enormous part in this game, thus even a new person can destroy an experienced player with just a little luck.

For those who have played Yahtzee:
You will love this game because it is more than you have ever played before. There is the original game, plus 4 modifications.
Yahtzee - the classic version
Triple Yahtzee - Essentially 3 cards of Yahtzee on one card, with multipliers (1x, 2x, 3x)
Painted Yahtzee - A mix of colors and numbers are used here.
Battle Yahtzee - After your rolls, your opponent gets to roll INTO your dice!!!

This game has been an absolutely wonderful addition to my collection of games (nearly 100 and counting!). My wife and I play it whenever we travel...and sometimes just to be able to sit back and be a little competitive.

The sounds are excellent, the music is not terribly annoying, and the 5 different types of play keep things fresh, so you don't get burnt out too soon.

This is one of the very best values out there, period.

Great fun and challenging
I was introduced to Yahtzee through Hoyle Board Games. This version is fun and exciting. It includes five different versious of the game. It works well in single or multiple player mode. The instructions were a little vague for some of the versions, but once you play them for a while you get the gist. The colors are great as well as the action. I recommend this for the whole family. Just remember, unlike the Hoyle Board Games program, you will need the CD in the drive to play all the games, except the classic.
