SPAM Yahtzee: Perfect For Playing With Your Food

I know what you’re thinking, and I couldn’t agree more – how has it taken so long for someone to make a SPAM-themed dice game? Well, in better late than never news, The OP has just released $17 Yahtzee SPAM, a spiced ham-inspired version of the classic dice-rolling game. And just when you thought playing Yahtzee couldn’t be more appetizing!

The game’s dice include images of popular SPAM cuisine, including SPAM musubi, SPAM sushi rolls, SPAM ramen, SPAM kabobs, SPAM fries, and a classic grilled cheese & SPAM, along with the classic numbers. Is anybody else’s mouth-watering? I think my dentist must have given me too much Novocaine because SPAM-themed Yahtzee just isn’t doing it for me.

So, yeah, it’s Yahtzee with pictures of SPAM dishes on the dice. I’m not sure what else to tell you, except if you aren’t shaking the dice around in your mouth before a roll, you aren’t trying hard enough to get kicked out of game night. “We’re in the middle of a pandemic! Good lord — and even if we weren’t!” I imagine my hosts yelling at me before asking me to leave and never come back.

Cup Noodles Special Edition Yahtzee: Come On, Five Shrimps!

Cup Noodles: without them, I probably would have starved to death in college. Those and $1 frozen store-brand personal pizzas saved my life. Not my grades though. No… not my grades. YAHTZEE: Cup Noodles is a special edition of Yahtzee that comes in a Cup Noodles stylized cup and features dice printed with its common ingredients, including carrots, corn, lime, shrimp, beef, and chicken. Personally, my favorite flavor is Hot & Spicy with Shrimp.

Despite the above photo, the set does NOT include any actual noodles. A shame, I know. Available on Amazon (affiliate link), playing a game will likely last longer than it takes me to eat a real Cup Noodles, my current record of which, at least according to people who witnessed it, was “disgustingly fast.” The key is slurping.

Will I be disqualified for putting all the dice in my mouth after I don’t roll what I want? My wife is nodding her head, yes, making it easy for me to decide who is and isn’t invited to game night this week. So, is there a rule set for one-player Yahtzee?

Library Book Style Vintage Board Games Store Vertically

vintage game collection
This is a smart design idea. Hasbro has redesigned the packaging for many of your favorite classic board games so they store in a classy book-style vertical manner. No more stacks of unsightly brightly colored wide game boxes that you have to hide in a basement rec room or closet. These games all match and can be proudly displayed on any bookshelf- they look like a row of classic books. Show them off in your living room, den, library, or even the office.

The games themselves are exactly the same as the original versions you played as a kid (and still do). The only major difference is that the boards fold up more times (looks like in 9ths) instead of in half to fit into the box. There is a WIDE variety of games available: Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble, Jenga, Clue, Life, Stratego, Yahtzee. Some are available in a wooden box as well. Would make a great gift or collection.

Plants vs. Zombies Yahtzee: Zahmbiee!

I have to admit that I always thought of Yahtzee as one of the lamest board games out there. I liked to play it growing up only slightly less than checkers. I do think this Plants vs. Zombies Yahtzee game is pretty cool though. I particularly like the cone head zombie dice cup.

It’s worth the $25 price just to get that dice cup, which you could use to shake your dice for a more entertaining game of Dungeons and Dragons or some such. In addition to the zombie head dice shaker, you also get six dice with PvZ images on them.

Even the score pad is PvZ-ified to keep score. You can pick this game up right now at ThinkGeek and roll dice till your heart’s content, or until the zombies make it to your house.

Pac-Man Yahtzee

It’s a match made in (marketing) heaven. Dice have dots on them. Pac-Man likes to eat dots. Boom, Pac-Man Yahtzee Pac Man Yahtzee there you go. Of course, what Pac-Man loves more than dots is fruit and ghosts and that’s what replaces the pips on the dice in this game. Pac-Man’s body is the dice shaker. You can still yell out Yahtzee if you want, it’s your game.

Pac-Man Yahtzee… It’s Driving Me Crazy

Pac-Man and Yahtzee are two of my favorite childhood memories. Both games provided endless hours of fun (and frustration) so what could be better than a game that combines the two?

The Yahtzee Pac-Man Collector’s Edition plays just like regular Yahtzee, but the dice faces have been replaced with ghosts and fruit. And the shaker. Well, the shaker is the best part of the game. It’s Pac-Man himself.

So what are you waiting for? Roll yourself five blinkies and head on over to Amazon, where you can grab the Pac-Man Yahtzee set for $24.99(USD).
