Phone Used For Review - Nokia 5800 XpressMusic (games may be different on different phone models)
Gameplay - Yacht is a poker dice game where you have to make a series of different "hands" such as threes, fours, full house, flush etc, and uses rules very similar to the famous games Yahtzee and Generala. You can throw a set of dice up to three times to try to make a hand, with the option of holding one or more dice in order to improve your chances. You can also score hands straight away without throwing again if you prefer. The aim of the game is to get the highest score possible, and the game also keeps track of your average score so you can aim to improve your game in the long run.
Graphics - As with all ZingMagic games, the graphics are simple and functional. There's an option to change the background and dice designs but that's about all there is graphicswise.
Sound - None.
Multiplayer & Online - None.
Overall - Yacht's rules are simple but they're not obvious, and it's a shame ZingMagic failed to include any instructions with the game. However, once you've got the hang of things it's quite fun to play, and the fast turnaround time for games makes this an effective time-waster.
