Dice Review: YAHTZEE With Buddies

The app starts with a short explanation. Tap on roll to roll the dice and pick the numbers you want to keep. Finally, choose the desired score on the playing card, for example full house, large straight or yahtzee. In the latter case, a festive animation appears. Doesn’t suit you? After the usual three throws, you may roll the dice a fourth time. Be careful with that, because the available extra number of throws is limited. See an ad to add extra throws if you want.

Users can play this game without registration, but the options are more limited. Log in with a Facebook account to challenge people you know. Sometimes it takes a while for the opponent’s turn to be over. Fortunately, you can play several games at the same time.

YAHTZEE With Buddies is an accessible game that will keep you entertained for hours. Unfortunately, because of the many options, the user environment looks quite busy. Another downside is the English language.
