The newest game is now out at Pogo. I don't have much time to check it out this morning but from what I'm reading, it's the same concept as regular Yahtzee and Everyone Wins Bingo.
There are 13 rounds and you get 3 rolls for each one. You have 6 minutes to complete all 13 rounds and fill in your scorecard. If you finish before time is up, there's a bonus game you can play for extra tokens.
If 6 minutes is too long for you, there are fast rooms. You also have the option of Classic or Wild mode. I haven't tried Wild yet but it looks like there are extra dice thrown in, such as a joker or something like that can be used to help your game.
Not sure what exactly happens when your room fills the Super Yahtzee meter. It hasn't happened yet for the room I'm in. LOL...I'm interested to see how it works. If your room fills the meter, then everyone gets to play the Super Yahtzee Bonus Game.
Some of the things I like so far is that you can change the color of the cup. Only two colors to start with at the moment but as you climb in ranks, I'm sure more will become available. Also, if you make a mistake and hit the wrong category on your scorecard, you can change it. It will only stick if you hit the cup to roll again.
If you're interested in play, here's the link.

I checked out this game when it first came out and you could preview it. I fell in love with it! Yahtzee has always been my favorite game of all times. This is alot of fun and I could play it for hours...Finally pogo is coming up with games we can actually enjoy and that we like!

It's addicting! For me, it's been one of those where I say just one more game...and it turns into more than that. LOL
I haven't been on Pogo much lately because I have other things going on so my Yahtzee addiction has settled a bit. I'm sure once I get back in the swing of things, it will be in full force again!

I played it this morning to help our league mark a room. We played in a wild room. You get a blue wild dice every so often. I like it. I'm so excited they are bringing these board games back. I really like monopoly and yahtzee. Now they just need boggle and sorry and i'll be a happy camper!

Wow sounds like fun I had not seen yahtzee on pogo yet. I will go check it out when I am done posting I don't think I have enough time to play a game of it before I need to go pick the kids up from school though I will have to play tonight since there won't be anything on tv but electrion coverage.
