Memorial Day Tower

The Memorial Day Tower is an eight day challenge where you are awarded the US Flag custom dice.  This tower is a shorter two tier (Gold and Gold) challenge.

You have to beat:

Three Beret, Major Generoll, Fleet Admiroll, and Air Fours General.  There is no custom vanity frame for beating the tower challenge multiple times.

The main focus of the rewards are diamonds (112) and only five bonus rolls.  The same rules apply, Triple Replays, and you can skip the wait for some major bonus rolls.

Valentine's Showdown on Yahtzee with Buddies

Yahtzee with Buddies just started the Valentine's Showdown.  It looks like you get a custom vanity frame and dice after you beat the showdown five times. The showdown lasts until Feb 14th, 2016. You should have enough time to at least defeat the dice masters once to get the vanity frame.

The dice look like the little candy sweets. :)  
The vanity frame has the heart with tiny hearts that get filled in each time you beat the showdown.



These are the dice masters that you'll face.  I haven't gone through at this moment but I'll fill in the info as I progress as usual. You can skip the waiting period by using some of your bonus rolls.

BRONZE  LEVEL (5 Bonus Roll Prize)
Two Love: 50 XP, 160 Avg.
Fourmance: 100 XP, 180 Avg
Twopid: 200 XP, 220 Avg

SILVER LEVEL (10 Bonus Roll Prize)
Two Cute: 300 XP, 235 Avg
XOXO: 500 XP, 245 Avg
Four Ever: 750 XP, 255 Avg
Sweet Three: 1,000 XP, 270 Avg

GOLD LEVEL (25 Bonus Roll Prize + Vanity Frame)
Marry Three: 2,000 XP, 285 Avg
Tuxthreedo: 2,500 XP, 305 Avg
Rollaway Bride: 3,000 XP, 315 Avg
Lil Rasroll: 4,000 XP, 325 Avg
Afourdite: 5,000 XP, 340 Avg

If you beat the valentine's showdown at least once then you'll see this message when you are victorious!  Are you going to play it and beat it five more times?  

I usually don't unless there is a set of custom dice as a reward but the little hearts that fill in the vanity frame don't excite me.

Do you play this showdown?

Clue Community Event in Yahtzee with Buddies

The Clue Community Event just started today (1/14/16) and lasts for 25 days.  You have 25 days to collect 80 clues (magnifying glasses).  You do this in various ways but playing will get you one.  Beating the characters in the showdown will get you more, and so will doing tournaments.

Note that it says that you must qualify (get 80 magnifying glasses) and the community (all the players) have to collect 25,000,000 magnifying glasses.  There are three tiers: 200 XP, 400 XP and 600 XP if everyone helps out.  You have to wait 25 days to get your dice even if you finish early.

There are prizes for beating the dice masters.  First you get XP, Bonus Rolls and/or Diamonds.  You earned a few in the "Diamond Fortress" right?  


Beat the whole showdown and get Cluedo Black Custom Dice.  Beating the showdown gets you this new vanity profile.  Each time you beat the clue showdown, you get a new marker around the vanity.  Can you beat it five times?

Notice again, that once you beat a dice master that you can skip the waiting period by using some diamonds.  For those of you asking, "What are diamonds for in Yahtzee with Buddies?"  Now you know!

They are used like bonus rolls but harder to get.


Here are the dice masters that you need to beat; as I beat the bunch I'll update this post.

BRONZE LEVEL: Completing gets 5 Bonus Rolls
Professor Plum: 50 XP, 1 Clue, 171 Avg
Monsieur Brunette: 100 XP, 2 Clues, 192 Avg
Colonel Mustard: 200 XP, 5 Clues, 233 Avg

SILVER LEVEL: Completing gets 15 Bonus Rolls
Miss Scarlet: 300 XP, 2 Clues, 240 Avg
Mr. Green: 500 XP, 4 Clues, 255 Avg
Lady Lavendar: 750 XP, 6 Clues, 266 Avg
Madam Rose: 1,000 XP, 10 Clues, 270 Avg

GOLD LEVEL: Completing gets 30 Bonus Rolls and Vanity Profile Crown
Sgt Gray: 2,000 XP, 10 Clues, 285 Avg
Rusty Nayler: 2,500 XP, 15 Clues, 305 Avg
Ms. White: 3,000 XP, 20 Clues, 315 Avg
Prince Azure: 4,000 XP, 25 Clues, 325 Avg

Miss Peach: 5,000 XP, 50 Clues, 340 Avg

Beat the final dice master 4 more times and get a marker for each time on the vanity crown. Remember that for every 80 clues, you get a scratcher!  Good luck.

I beat the challenge today (January 24th) using a fresh start; especially after Miss Peach got three yahtzee (50,70,80) at a certain point...  I got the traditional, "You are in the top 1%" pop ups when it finished.  It showed two crowns for the achievement.  I'm not sure I want to try it four more times though.

What are Vanity Frames in Yahtzee with Buddies?

Custom Frames

Scopely has added experience (XP) based custom frames in July 2016.

Vanity Frames
Yahtzee with Buddies just got updated with vanity frames.  As far as I can see them, they are awarded for obtaining 5, 10 and 15 custom dice.  Basically, if you are a custom dice collector.  The vanity frame goes around your user profile icon in the game.  There are several different types for achieving different challenges in the game.  Some as mentioned are for the custom dice, others for completing a showdown.  Only the custom dice achievements seem to be retroactively credited.

I'll post pictures of them and how to get them shortly.



On the top left is the Classic meaning everyone gets it. The official tag is Yahtzee with Buddies look.

The second is the Dice Collector (level 1-3).  Awarded for collecting 5, 10 and 15 custom dice.  Mine is currently on the "Collect 15 Custom Dice Set"

Next comes PVP2. AKA. People Player Level 2 for me.  Complete 250 games against other players.

The fourth is locked and I don't know what it is.  Let me know in the comments section, please.
