How to play Yatzy:

The classic yatzy is played with 5 dice.

A round is played by rolling the five dice and keeping the ones you want to use for this round's combination, each combination can only be used once. That is, if you have already had 5 of a kind, you cannot roll 5 of a kind again.

Next, you roll the remaining dice. You can roll a total of three times. When you hit a combination, you score the number of points shown on the used dice or, in special cases, the low (small straight) and the high (large straight), a fixed number of points. Additionally, if you achieve Yatzy, you get 50 points on top.

If you do not hit one of the combinations, which become fewer and fewer during the game, you must put a zero in front of one of the missing ones.

The “Chance” field is used when you have not gathered a usable combination, and you count the eyes together for the dice you ended up with. Yatzy is the combination where you have five of a kind, and this is the best combination in the game.
