Reviews for Five Dice (#1788)

Review by YOR on 08 Mar 2019 (Rating: 2)

Accord Data International Ltd, who published the awful Space Shuttle, also wrote this game which was published by the equally long-winded Christopher James Software Ltd, so these are the only two games in existence from Accord and having done one already I am now duty bound to look at this one too. It plays like Yahtzee which is a bit like five card poker but with dice. After each roll it tells you to select dice and then roll again' this is to choose which dice you wish to hold but there is no way of knowing if you have even pressed it or not until you choose to roll again, surely flashing the text or something like that would have been helpful but nope it's guesswork. And in the end you have to enter your score based on what you have, pair, three of a kind, full house etc. It's tedious but at least I spent more than 10 minutes playing it so at least it had something going for it.
