Publisher's Description
From James Gutholm:
Jahtzee follows the same rules a regular Yahtzee and can be played by 1 to 4 players. The game maintains "Players" preferences and a history of the top 10 scores. Jahtzee features animated 3-D rolling dice, and sounds created with Apple's new "Garage Band".
What's new in this version: Changes in Version 1.1.1.2u
- Compiled for Mac OS X 10.4 Universal to run on Intel and PPC on XCode 2.4.1.
- Fixed a bug where a pending Jahtzee bonus was not being subtracted when the dice were re-rolled. Thanks to Peter Morris for finding this.

"The dice lie"
Version: Jahtzee 1.1.1.2u
Pros
Nice interface, easy to play
Cons
Doesn't accurately display the roll, then penalizes you for believing it
Summary
Once or twice a session, it refuses to score a roll correctly, making the game aggravating and frustrating. Recently, it refused to score an all-3 Jahtzee. A bug report to the developer resulted in the following response: "...indeed this is a bug. Somewhere around OSX 10.4, the Quicktime playback (each die is a little movie) got flaky and so one of those dice is not actually a three internal to the program, but the movie stuck. You can actually see [which die is wrong] because the top and right faces look different than the other 4 dice."

"Good game but it keeps "losing" some 3's"
Version: Jahtzee 1.1.1.2u
Pros
Just like the real thing with a simple interface
Cons
Somnetimes does not register when a 3 is thrown which is especially frustrating when a "Jahtzee" in 3's is thrown! It would be better if the the game simply defaulted to the last player without having to confirm but with an option to change players.
Summary
I have played this game for some time now but have finally become so frustrated with the 3 issue that I have removed it from my dock.

"It's a little cheat"
Version: Jahtzee 1.1.1.2u
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
This is a fun game to play, but it doesn't always count the dice correctly. Four of the same value may only show three, etc. Sometimes credit isn't given for the actual value of the dice. The mathematics is a little buggy, also not clicking a die to keep doesn't always let the die spin. Kind of wierd to watch.
Price is great. -
"Math and mechanical errors"
Version: Jahtzee 1.1.1.2u
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
* Doesn't always add up the real score of the roll, and sometimes an unlocked die doesn't roll. It's a cute program, but it should be played only by kids who like to listen to the dice roll. -
"Neat programming"
Version: Jahtzee 1.1.1.2u
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I am a bit of a yahtzee connoisseur having spent way too many hours over many years playing it, and this is one of the nicest iterations of the game I've seen. I used to get upset with my previous version when I accidentally hit the wrong scorebox and there was no undo. The double click to confirm the score eliminates this (though I think that there should also be an option or preference to confirm the entry on the first click, with an UNDO for an error) and it scores slightly differently from the one I'm used to, but overall, this is the best layout I've seen in terms of the way I like to play the game.
Nice work!
