Hoyle has a tendency to bundle other games into the mix and this edition includes Maximum Pool.

Dice games include Yacht (Yahtzee), Triple Yacht (which is a three-rowed version of Yacht for much longer games), Zilch (a fun and fast-paced Yahtzee-like dice game) and Word Yacht (hands you 10 dice with random letters and a limited time to make words out of them – great for honing your grammar skills). Chess, Backgammon, Checkers, Rummy, Pachisi, Reversi and Dominoes make up the old timers. Hoyle Board Games 2005 includes many classics from previous versions and some extras thrown in.
