Description of 🎲 Skill-Chance Excitement with Classic Yahtzee

A CLASSIC: Yahtzee - one of the most popular dice games since its introduction in the 1950s, with Over 50 million games sold each year. Our “Classic Yahtzee” is the same styling as the original. WHAT’S IN A NAME: The name of the game is also the name of the best hand. The odds of rolling a “Yahtzee” (5 OF A KIND) on your first roll are 1295 to 1, so you won’t see that happen very often!. STRATEGIC: While luck plays a big role in Yahtzee, strategy makes a huge difference. You score each combination just once, and the number of different combinations you can score is equal to the number of turns in the game. FAST PACED: The game ends after each player has 13 turns and filled every box in the column with a score or a zero. The Player or Team with the highest total score for all games (up to six) wins!. INCLUDED: We include five white dice, a score pad, eight bonus chips (four red, four yellow), and a storage tray and instruction sheet. Plus - our Dice cup has the original aluminum rim! Ages 8+. Introduced over fifty years ago.

Great Yahtzee Classic Edition

This is a great Yahtzee Classic Edition. It was a birthday present for our 9 year old nephew. He loves playing with it. The shaker cup is pewter, which reminds me of the Yahtzee my grandma had at home when I was a kid. I'm not sure if the original 1950's version had a pewter cup or not, but at least one early version did. A bit noisy to shake the bones but it adds to the fun.

Great game, damaged packaging, gift disappointed

Classic Yahtzee game is the best and always fun for everyone including kids. This review is primarily about the poor quality of the game packaging. As you can see in the photo, the box is always clearly damaged. It was sent in an excellent Revain box with no damage. As it was a Mother's Day gift to my mother-in-law it's a shame she received a damaged item. Obviously a problem with the seller.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Little things

Fraud Do not buy from game collections

You will receive a tin cup for rolling the dice. Noisy! We lined it with felt and it was an improvement. It also comes with five dice and several counting cards. The total cost is about 25 cents. If you like Yahtzee, buy a deck of cards, five dice, and a plastic juice cup. Make copies of your scorecards. The total cost could be $2.00. That's all you get for $11. Big Divorce! I read other reviews and couldn't believe what I read. Everything is correct!

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Safety

Classic Game - Fun

Played this game as a kid and bought it for family use. A fun classic box and classic dice cup. It's not aligned, so it makes a lot of noise when shaking the dice before rolling. Great game and it really develops some basic math skills (for kids. Well, adults too). The only minor complaint is that it doesn't have many scorecards. So if you think you can play it many times, consider getting extra hands (or making copies).

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • There are flaws

Good match! in game collections

It's Yahtzee, so what's not to like? We enjoy torturing our teenage son by forcing him to play with us. When we stumbled across this old standard in a bar one night, we knew it was the perfect choice. It's fun, fast and awesome. Yes, I paid a little more for the retro design, but one mug comes with it and the other doesn't. Plus he looks cooler. i love this game We also take it with us when we travel. Choosing to put things on paper is great for your math skills. If you are afraid of math, you…

What can I say, FUN, FUN, FUN

Another classic. I love everything in this game. One not-so-good thing is that if you want to play long enough to while away the time, there aren't enough logs to last too long. Manufacturers could add another batch of sheets without losing any money. Replacement pads are very expensive. I sewed four sheets of paper together into a square, scanned them, and cut them into individual sheets for practically pennies of paper and ink, but that doesn't take away from the fun factor of this game. The…

Still a classic! in game collections

I recently bought a Yahtzee as a gift for my 8 year old granddaughter. We were going to spend a few weeks together and I thought it would be fun to play with her. she loved it! There's a reason this game is a classic. She had to learn a bit about some concepts (full house) and strategy, but we played it almost every day. Even her little 4-year-old sister sat with us and rolled the dice for me. One of my favorite childhood memories is sitting at the table and playing games, this Yahtzee set lets

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Poorly executed retro version

False advertising. The description suggests this is a retro take on a style similar to the original. However, the description and picture are misleading. The original dice cup, made over 60 years ago, was made of cardboard covered with faux leather on the outside and felt on the inside. The mug that comes with this "classic" version is much smaller and is a brown painted metal mug. It makes a terrible rumble when you shake the bones inside. Oh, and the white dice that come with it have expired.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Unsafe
