About

Yat Z is an idea that I’ve been toying with for a while. Yahtzee is an all time classic table top game. Despite being a predominantly luck based, the amount of choice that a player is given makes it feel like a strategy game. You have to be thinking in advance, should I fill my fours now, or take a 3 of a kind? Should I play it safe and roll for fives, or should I go all in and try to get a straight? It’s a very fun game, but playing it without anyone to compete against makes it a touch less thrilling. That is where the idea for Yat Z came from. I wanted to make a fun single player experience that uses the thought provoking gameplay of Yahtzee in a brand new context.
