I don't like titles:

A must-have classic:
If you like family board/dice games, Yahtzee is a classic that you must have! This game is easy to learn, can be set up and played quickly, employs strategy, and can be enjoyed by kids and adults. Beginners can win against advanced players occasionally. Yahtzee has some similarity to the hands in poker, and is a good game to play before learning poker.
[..]:
Yahtzee is the funnest family game out there. It is so quick to pull out and fast to learn. You really only need 5 dice and you're ready to play Yahtzee. I found this website: [...]/ which will count the score on all the dice for you. It's like an online yahtzee scoresheet/scorecard. Try it out if you buy the game!!
