Roll, hold and score five dice across thirteen boxes

Yatzy is the classic five-dice game on a scorecard. Each turn you roll the dice, tap the ones you want to keep, and re-roll the rest up to twice. The card shows in green what every box would score, from Ones to Sixes, three and four of a kind, full house, straights, Chance and Yatzy. Play an offline table against a computer opponent, with dice coins at stake.

  2. Press Roll to throw the five dice.
  3. Tap dice to hold them, then roll again up to two more times.
  4. Tap a green box on the scorecard to enter that score.

Tips to play better

  • Chance takes any roll, so keep it for a bad turn.
  • Offline tables cost dice coins to enter and pay double if you win.
