Press YATZE to start a game.
Play yatze on the HP-48. Program shows the dice and almost all of your scores,
it does not show your score for "chance" but it is keeping track. It lets you
press a menu key under the dice to toggle them from "HELD" to "TOSS" then when
you press "ROLL" the dice will be rolled randomly. After your third roll a new
menu will show where you can pick where you want your score to go. After you
have gotten a yahtze, (5 of a kind) a new thing will show up in the scoring
menu called 'BONS'. if you get a second yatze in the same game you can press
this and get 100 points bonus, then pick a good place to put the 5 of a kind.
If you put a zero in the yatze score box then a new thing will show up in the
scoring menu called 'JOKE'. If you do later get a yatze (5 of a kind) then you
can press JOKE and will be allowed to put 40 points in large straight or 30 in
small straight or 25 in full house.
At the end of the game your total score will show. The program will also get
rid of all the new vars that were created while the program was being run as
long as you run it to the end. If you don't run it to the end then next time
you play the game you may have to press 'NEXT' a couple of times to find the
YATZE game.
