Ultimate Yahtzee [SOLD]
 
So I'm sure alot of you are thinking "why request such a game that anyone can play anyway without a pc?" The reason is this version had 3 games modes that haven't been seen since: Pyramid Yahtzee, Painted Yahtzee, and Battle Yahtzee. Pyramid used d4's (four sided dice) and had some slightly different patters, rather than short and long straight. Painted Yahtzee had dice with both numbers and colors on them, so along with the standard matches, you also had flushes, full houses of colors, and more like that. Battle Yahtzee was a 2 player versus, where the first played would make his three rolls, then the second would roll his first two. With the third roll, the first player's dice were returned to the rolling field, where the second player could try to ruin his roll. Then each player decided how to play their rolls, and the order of players switched. It was brutal.

For those who need image references, and a reliable release date, gamefaqs has some info: http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/29900-ultimate-yahtzee

Hasbro Interactive from 1996, tiny mom & pop online shops have it, along with ebay. Should be safe for the site.

It would be nice if this were still true, as I, too, love Ultimate Yahtzee, but it's still legally sold on Amazon here and here (note that "Fullfilled by Amazon" indicates the game is being sold by confirmed direct representatives of the publisher; see this page as to why this is important). As such, this game violates Abandonia's Definition of Abandonware. Ergo...

Ultimate Yahtzee - [REJECTED] (Sold on Amazon)

Buylink #1 is no longer valid due to the high valuation, Buylink #2 is still valid.

Both buylinks I linked to no longer have any copies sold which are "Fulfilled by Amazon". Therefore, unless another valid buylink can be found, this game is approved!

Still sold on Amazon.de.
