Dicey Combos: a scorecard for the table
Dicey Combos replaces the paper score pad. You roll your own dice, tap in the score, and the app adds the totals and the 35-point bonus. It suggests what a roll is worth in every open box, keeps a history of your games and shows statistics such as wins, highest scores and streaks. It works offline, has no ads, runs on iPhone and Android and is available in 13 languages.
Good fit if you play with real dice and want the maths done for you. Not the right fit if you want to play against strangers online.
Online Yahtzee games
If you want to play on your phone against other people, an online game is the better choice. The official Yahtzee game app from Hasbro's licensee lets you play friends and strangers, with tournaments and social features. Expect ads, in-app purchases and the need for an internet connection.
Simple solo dice apps
Both app stores have plenty of small Yahtzee and Yatzy games for playing alone against the computer. They're handy for a quick game on the train. Check the reviews for ads and whether the rules match the version you know: many Scandinavian apps use Yatzy rules, with pairs and a 50-point bonus.
Paper or phone?
Real dice and a paper pad are still a fine way to play. The dice feel better than any animation, and nobody needs a screen. The weak spot is the score sheet: totals get added up wrong, the bonus is forgotten, and old games are lost. Keeping score on a phone fixes that while the dice stay on the table. If you'd rather not install anything, our free web scorecard works in the browser.
