Nice Dice for Windows

Used Nice Dice for Windows?

Editors’ Review

Download.com staffOctober 12, 2013

Despite lackluster graphics and a few missing feaures, NiceDice offers a decent imitation of the popular dice game Yahtzee. We assumed NiceDice's single-player mode would let us compete against the computer, but we were wrong: it only let us play to rack up the highest score. The Quick Launch link gives the rules for each game variation. You can choose classic Yahtzee or Yamb (essentially a multiround Yahtzee) and play either game with five dice or six. The brushed-metal interface is passably attractive, but the other graphics are strictly average (if even that). We like the realistic sound of rolling dice, but you can disable it if it bothers you. The MIDI soundtrack sounds a bit outdated, but again, you can turn it down or off completely. NiceDice may do in a pinch for serious Yahtzee addicts, but less-committed players will probably want to roll the bones somewhere else.

The fact that it is quick to open, easy to play, conflicts with nothing, and the price is so inexpensive for such a good software. Author stands behind it and is easy to communicate with via email. Gives quick responses.

Version 2 is just great! It was very generous of the author of the game to offer the registration code for free for registered users of version 1. I highly recommend this game.
