Cheshire Cat Comes Out of Hiding

The Cheshire Cat has Come Out of Hiding

Cheshire Cat Challenge

Yahtzee with Buddies has made the Cheshire Cat come out and play against you for the next 48 hours.  The cat has been worn down and now it only takes 360 points to beat him.  Remember that it used to be 395 originally and then lowered to 380 and now finally to 360.

Many of you wrote in and shared your displeasure with how difficult to beat the Cheshire since he scored three yahtzees each time you played him.

You can play the Cheshire Cat over and over again if you have enough rolls to do it.  For others it may be the final opportunity to get the custom dice.

Have you beaten him?

April Showers May Flowers Showdown

Yahtzee with Buddies introduced the April Showers May Flowers Showdown. The showdown will go for another three weeks where you will get the opportunity to beat the dice masters over and over again.  You get a combination for bonus rolls and diamonds but the focus on the prize is diamonds.  The two tiers are labeled Bronze and each has five dice masters in them for a total of 10.

I had to use a triple replay on this showdown and tried to beat the whole showdown in one sitting.  It cost me an additional 20 bonus rolls to not lose my spot.  

The 345 avergage scoring PipFlower finally went down!
