The Weirdest and Wildest of Yahtzee

ONCE AGAIN I am forced to apologize. I did not realize that the Dice used in the Oogie Boogie version were the exact ones he used in the movie. This is very cool, so I will move his dice above Pac-Man's in the rankings. I am truly sorry, Mr. Boogie. Which Yahtzee Tie-In was your favorite? Or are you more of a Casino Yahtzee fan?

I actually found Jackpot Yahtzee and Casino Yahtzee at a local collectables store about a month ago. I haven't found an opportunity to try Casino Yahtzee yet but I found Jackpot Yahtzee to be really fun, even in singleplayer (my best score is 480) :>

[@SimonCallahan]

I actually have a copy of Pac-Man Yahtzee, so I'll go with that one. The only downside is that, after playing it a few times, the paint started to chip on the dice.

[@dawsy1000]

The slushee cup from the glee version is probably the best thing they could have picked. In the show a common prank the characters pull on each other is "slusheeing" them. Basically throwing a slushee on them. So it's an iconic symbol of the show that makes for a simple logical Yahtzee cup.

[@fennecry]

Yessss, the moment I saw Glee I knew it had to be a slushy cup.

[@cam_like_ham]

When all the songs from the show made their way to iTunes every week, the album art for the singles in season 2 was always a slushie of some color. They drilled that iconography into us HARD.

OKAY so. recovered glee fan. but a main part of how cartoonishly "revenge of the nerds" lima high school is is that the popular kids will just straight assault the "gleeks" by slamming slushie cups on their clothes/faces/both. a big moment in the first season is how the glee club during their performance grab slushie cups of their own and throw it in the faces of the audience, but it's confetti so it's actually really fun! anyways the fun part of all this is that they didn't even get the proper color for the cup. the iconic (i can't believe i said that) slushie color was red because the writers saw carrie one time i think. anyways the color red is significant because red/white is the color of the cheer-ios, the high school cheerleading team, and therefore the confetti in that big number was red. where did they even get that shade of electric blue from. tldr: the slushie cup is glee iconography because it's a symbol of being a loser, which the show's characters pride themselves on being. this symbology quickly falls off after season two tho so it's like. whatever.

[@kamsandwich]

Thank you for your help, I was very lost there! I hope your Glee Recovery continues to go well too.

[@Anastas1786]

If memory serves, I think they kept the slushy in advertising, like in ads and on audio-only KZbin videos of the season's songs, and the colors of the background and slush would be specific to the season. I'm sure it was blue at least once, and they might've been worried that if they made a _specifically red_ slushy the unalterable core of their iconography they'd get some irritated e-mails from The Icee Company.

[@salvadorromero9712]

I assumed Kam's question was about the color because have never seen a single episode of Glee and knew the slushees were somehow iconic; I learned that during its maximum of general cultural presentation during the first season or so. I have only seen a few clips of the cheer coach which I liked, and a couple of good musical numbers, and a couple that seemed very weird out of context. (The one I remember was "Uptown Girl" sung by gay teenage boys at a posh private school to a woman working as their own teacher. It seemed almost cartoonishly opposite to anything Billy Joel had in mind and didn't really work cheekily recontextualized or anything.) Anyway this is my long winded way of saying I think the loser thing seemed pretty thoroughly discarded as well, or at least inconsistently applied. I would be very surprised if it was a sharply written show, though it seemed to be a lot of fun for its fans. Great iconography for Yahtzee adaptation and I'd definitely buy it if I were a game collector. I just play them so I just use generic dice and paper!

[@SSBBPOKEFAN]

yahtzee D&D would genuinely go so hard

[@iantaakalla8180]

Honestly, Yahtzee d&d could even have a variability mechanic, where you get a bonus to rolling the different categories of Yahtzee that are not counting the amount of ones-sixes. You get really high bonuses for first time use of to represent doing an action that surprises the enemy, but if you roll it again you get a smaller bonus to represent that the thing may be new but is being adjusted to. This bonus mechanic can only really be done once per encounter. If you roll all the categories that are not counting the amount of same numbers, then you get advantage on an incredibly hard-hitting move. The catch is that this can only happen once per play session so that you cannot just roleplay that you are so creative you can always make creative use of hard-hitting attacks. This is in addition to using scores to add success, in case the rules sound very limiting, but they must be.

There's actually another Yahtzee spin-off i own called "Yahtzee Free-for-all". It's a competitive version where you place 3 cards (each having your standard Large Straight, Small Straight, Full House, etc.), and you take turns trying to get one of the cards, each having their own point values. If you fail to get any (or steal a card from someone else by getting a better dice roll), you place chips next to the current cards to increase their point value. It's hard to summarize in a comment, but you should definitely give it a look.

[@major_melon2583]

In my family it was common to play Yahtzee in parallel like shown in the first revamp, just without any scoring changes. Each player would get a full page of the score sheet to fill in, and got to pick freely which of the 5-6 columns to fill each turn. The reason was simply that single-column Yahtzee was too luck-based for our tastes. Playing multiple columns lets you strategise to hopefully get that +35 bonus for the top half in most columns, along with giving some wiggle room in case you e.g. rolled several straights in a row. It went so far that my father sat down and programmed a 6-column, 2-player version himself to play on the computer. I didn't know Yahtzee was usually played one column at a time until well into my teenage years.

The Mickey Mouse Yahtzee board game, not mentioned here, was the one variant that I had in our house for a long time, and is an example of both a themed edition and a revamped edition. The basic object is simple: roll as many of one character as you can-either Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy or Pluto-with Mickey being wild. What makes things very intriguing is the scoring: after your third roll, you place a token of your color on the spot corresponding to the number of that character which you rolled. If you are forced to place a token on a space already occupied, you must move to the next vacant one lower; for instance, if you roll four Donalds, and the 3 and 4 columns are already occupied, you have to place your token on the 2. The game is over once all players place their tokens, and the highest score wins.

[@BinglesP]

I feel like the worst part about Texas Hold'em Yahtzee is the fact that there is _so much_ missed potential there in combining a Poker game with the formula, just from the fact that so many of Yahtzee's scoring method is similar to Poker games' alone. I don't know how exactly you would mix them, but I feel like there's several kind of directions you could take it to make it not only a better game overall, but actually tie into the Yahtzee formula more faithfully while not being too similar to just the normal form of it. Plus, it allows more themed edition potential, considering Texas Hold'em usually involves chips and cards, which could have all sorts of stylistic variations of course. (Apologizes if I got anything wrong. Most of my experience with scoring like this outside of Yahtzee is through 51 Clubhouse Games on Nintendo Switch, and the Poker game mode in Bejeweled 3, I'm not even joking.)

My favorite Yahtzee is Yahtzee free for all. Which replaces having to write down scores with picking from three cards at a time that you can choose from. It makes the game go much faster, and you can steal people's cards so there's lots of strategy and backstabbing that can happen. I also have showdown and it's alright. The final round one time my mom stole basically every single spot on the board by getting lucky. It was pretty crazy to see. We also have the Yahtzee Cup of Noodle which is cool.
