How scoring works in Yahtzee
Yahtzee uses a 13-category scorecard split into an upper and lower section. In the upper section players score the sum of dice matching each face value (ones through sixes); scoring 63 or more in the upper section earns a 35-point bonus. The lower section rewards specific dice combinations: Three of a Kind and Four of a Kind score the sum of all five dice, Full House is a flat 25, Small Straight is 30, Large Straight is 40, Yahtzee (five of a kind) is 50, and Chance scores the sum of all dice with no requirement. If a player rolls additional Yahtzees after their first, each one is worth a 100-point bonus.

Yahtzee scorecard — common questions
What's the upper-section bonus in Yahtzee?+
If your six upper-section categories (ones through sixes) total 63 or more points, you earn a 35-point bonus. 63 is the magic number because it's exactly three of each face value (3×1 + 3×2 + 3×3 + 3×4 + 3×5 + 3×6 = 63). Hitting 'three of each' in the upper section is the standard target.
How does scoring a second Yahtzee (joker rule) work?+
If your Yahtzee category is already filled with 50 (a first Yahtzee), every additional five-of-a-kind earns a 100-point bonus and you must place the dice in another category. The joker rule says: fill the matching upper category first (e.g., five 4s → fours); if that's full, fill any lower category at its full face value (Full House = 25, Small Straight = 30, Large Straight = 40); if all lower are full, fill any upper.
Can I score a Yahtzee in the Chance category?+
Yes — Chance has no requirement, so you can score any five dice there for their face-value sum. If you've already scored Yahtzee (50) and roll a second one, the joker rule prefers other categories first, but Chance is a legal fallback at sum of dice.
What's the difference between Yahtzee and Yatzy?+
Yatzy is the Scandinavian version. Same basic structure but with One Pair, Two Pairs, and slight scoring differences (no upper bonus on the same threshold). The calculator supports both — try our Yatzy scorecard for that variant.
Is it really free? Do I need to sign up?+
Yes, free, no signup. The scorecard runs entirely in your browser — no account, no app to install, no tile data sent anywhere. Ads on the page keep the site running.
How do I share the scorecard with my table?+
Tap the QR code button at the top of any scorecard. Everyone scans it with their phone camera and gets a live view of the same scorecard — they can watch the leaderboard update in real time as you tap.
Do scores save if I close the tab?+
Yes — the in-progress scorecard is saved automatically in your browser. Open the same scorecard URL on the same device and your scores will still be there. To clear, tap Reset.
Does it work on mobile?+
Yes — every scorecard is built phone-first. Big tap targets, big numbers, designed to be passed around the table. Bookmark to your home screen for one-tap access.
Can I undo a tap?+
Yes — every scorecard has an Undo button at the top. It rolls back the last 20 score changes. The Reset button starts the whole game over.
What if my game isn't listed?+
Use the Any Board Game generic scorecard — it gives you flexible round columns and editable labels so you can score basically any round-based game. If you want a specific game added, the AI Prompts Library link in the footer has a feedback form.
