World Series of Yahtzee (2012)

About this game

World Series of Yahtzee is a simultaneous rolling game using the familiar Yahtzee mechanic. Tiles showing hand objectives are shuffled and 8 are placed on the raised board. Players receive unlimited simultanteous rolls until one of them presses the electronic lockout device, giving their opponents 5 seconds to also signal in to claim a tile. When the music ends, scoring players may pick a tile that matches their hand and then keep the associated points.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
