A multiplayer game in which players are dealt cards from a deck of game
cards having indicia thereon corresponding to combinations typically used
in the traditional Yahtzee game that are to be matched by the dice rolls
of the players. During the course of a player's turn, the player actuates
an instruction unit to start a timer setting a time limit within which
the player rolls the dice multiple times in an effort to match one of the
combinations on the cards in the player's hand. If the player matches a
combination on one of the cards, the player actuates the instruction unit
a second time to stop the timer and to receive a win instruction from the
instruction unit. If the player does not match any of the combinations on
the cards within the time limit, the instruction unit outputs a loss
instruction to be followed by the player. The sequence may continue until
one player has discarded all of the game cards in the player's hand onto
the discard pile.
