Yacht is a traditional dice game, played with five standard six-sided dice.
Yacht has four modes of play:
Both solitaire modes are played against a target score, and the final score is presented as a percentage of the target. In Normal mode, this score is 258, which represents the minimum score possible that will still fill every slot, including the Upper Bonus, with a non-zero value. It is possible to score above 100% in this mode.
In Hard mode, the target is 375 points. This represents a perfect score, and as such, 100% is the highest possible score you can achieve in this mode. However, achieving a 100% is as close to impossible as you can get without actually being impossible.
Both 2 player modes put you against another opponent with the traditional objective of scoring more points than the other player. The only real differenc is that in Human vs. Human mode, the 2nd player is another person, while in Human vs. Computer mode, it's a computer-controlled opponent.
