If you are using a desktop computer with Java Plugin installed, you can also play this Web version.
This is a version of the classic five-dice "Yahtzee" game. Each turn begins by shaking all five dice. You then choose which dice to keep, and which to shake again - click on the dice to "keep", then shake the remaining dice again. After your third shake, these are your final dice which count towards your score.
At the end of each turn, you now have to select a row from the scoresheet to enter your score. Each row scores in a different way, but you must pick one row. You then move to your next turn by shaking all five dice again. The game ends when you have entered a score for all thirteen rows in the scoresheet.
The scoresheet is divided into upper and lower sections: In the top part of the scoresheet (Axes to Sixes) you score only those dice which coorespond to the name of the row. E.g. if you select the row called "Twos" and your dice are "2, 3, 2, 2, 6", then you would score 6. You also score a bonus of 35 points if the sum of your scores in the upper section adds up to 63 of greater.
In the bottom part of the scoresheet, you must have the appropriate dice in order to score anything. So for "3/Kind" you must have at least three dice showing the same number. "Lo Straight" (30 points) is a run of four numbers (e.g "1, 2, 3, 4") and "Hi straight" (40 points) is a run of all five (e.g "1, 2, 3, 4, 5"). Note that it is never necessary to have the dice in a certain order, so "1, 4, 3, 5, 2" is also a "Hi Straight". "Yahtzee" is five of a kind, and is worth 50 points. A second "yahtzee" in the same game is worth an extra 100 bonus points.

randomness lacking
I enjoyed this game and then had to reload it on to a new phone. It looked slightly different, but now the randomness of the dice. For instance, if I start off getting a full house then the next four turns will also end with a full house. Straight, the same way.... I thought maybe I just played it too much, so I showed it to my husband and he picked up on it immediately.

Upper section total
The game is great but I would like to see a running total of points in the upper section as you play so that you can see how much you need in order to total the 63 needed for the bonus.

force closes
Keeps force closing every time I try to submit a high score globally. It didn't used to. On MyTouch 3g. What gives?

If you slide open the droid, the game resets itself. Kinda sucks. Otherwise great!
