When I first saw this game I thought it was yatzee. Ha! Since I've played a lot of yatzee this will take me some time to get used to the scoring, but this game is much harder. It's like double, too rows of scores, and you can put your numbers on either side. You can play against 1 or 2 human or computer opponents.

Now in the first bank, that says, ones, two, etc. normally you would expect to get points for 1-2 or 3 of the correct number. Wrong. For 1 or 2 of the number, you lose points, for 3 of the number you get zero, not until 4 of the number do you get points. The second bank has some differences, it says a pair, 2 pair, 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, and 5 of a kind. And the 3rd bank is the strangest of all. It says full house, low straight, high straight, even, [where all the dice must be an even number] uneven, [where all the dice must be uneven numbers] tiny, where all the dice must be as low as possible, and chance.

You still get 3 rolls, but if you can place your dice before the 3rd roll you get bonus points. It's an interesting game, and quite different.
