Welcome to Game Insights, I’m your host. If you’ve ever rolled dice and filled out a score sheet, you’ve played a roll-and-write—even if you didn’t know the name. Yahtzee and its cousin Kismet have been around since the 1950s, but since 2018 this genre has exploded with fresh themes and clever twists.

According to board game expert and veteran reviewer with over 300 reviews, “roll-and-write is quite self-explanatory.” You roll dice, you write on your personal sheet, and you chase patterns or bonuses. Some games let you reroll dice, some challenge you to share results with other players, and many even work solo.

These modern takes are portable, easy to teach, and “fun to replay many times in a row.” Whether you’re new or a seasoned dice-roller, these five titles add variety, strategy, and creative flair to every session. Stay tuned for details on each pick and get ready to upgrade your next game night!
