Product Description
From the Manufacturer
A computer adaptation of the classic dice game Yahtzee. Players take turns throwing five dice and attempting to make scoring combinations (full house, straight). The elusive five of a kind is referred to as a Yahtzee (hence the game's name).
In addition to the standard game (solo, against the computer, and against other human players), Ultimate Yahtzee has four other variations including Battle Yahtzee (your roll can hurt the other player's roll) and Pyramid Yahtzee (uses four sided dice).

Yahtzee ! Fun for the Family!,
By "moonstone2000" (Oroville, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ultimate Yahtzee (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)
My son and I spent an enjoyable evening playing the demo version of Yahtzee that I received through a magazine subscription. The graphics were very easy on the eyes,(for which I was thankful, having spent my energies on ten hours of work...)The colors used were pleasant and soothing, as were the sounds that accompanied the game. Tired as I was, I found myself pleasantly relaxed. My son persuaded me to play the first game; I suggested playing the two games that followed. We had a lot of fun! We had so much fun that I decided to purchase the Ultimate Yahtzee. Yeah, YAHTZEE!!!

More dice throwing fun for the Yahtzee addicted.,
By CMC "Diamondfist" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ultimate Yahtzee (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)
This CD-ROM comes in an attractive reddish and gold package, with complete and clear instructions. Installation is quick to get you started playing right away. The graphics are a little fuzzy, but are nice, with pleasant colors. The music is great, different tunes play depending on which version you are playing. The Classic version dice sound effects are closest to the actual sound of thrown dice, but the sound of dice shaking in the cup are the same in all variations. Scoring is a snap, as potential scoring sections are revealed in grayed-out numbers in their respective spots after you roll. All you need do is click in the desired section.Everyone will want to play the Classic version first. It has a nice, green felt area to toss your dice, scoring is just like regular Yahtzee. Triple Yahtzee was actually a game in stores, but was discontinued and lives on in this version. It has the best music, but takes longest to play. You must score in each of the 13 scoring sections 3 times! Painted Yahtzee is the most unusual, but is very fun. and just like its name implies, very colorful! Pyramid Yahtzee seems like a nod to D&D players (like me), using four-sided pyramid dice and different number combinations to roll for. Battle Yahtzee is my least favorite, but provides an interesting way of playing; knocking out your opponent's roll in hopes of improving your own score. This variation is geared mostly for two players or more. This collection of Yahtzee games provide an interesting selection for the Yahtzee fan and will appeal to a wide variety of tastes. It seems that Yahtzee fits in many aspects of gaming pleasures. Will a Yahtzee-themed casino program for PC/Mac be far behind? (Please!!!) If you love Yahtzee, you will love this CD-ROM.

Great Game!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ultimate Yahtzee (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)
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.
