Old-school ANSI.
New daily obsession.
Designed for an ANSI 80×24 screen, with a clean scorecard, holdable dice, and a daily competition built right in.
How it works
Roll. Hold.
Choose wisely.
Each day gives every caller one full 13-turn game. The dice are random, the scoring is classic, and every completed card earns its place in the rankings.

★ CROSS-BBS DICE COMPETITION
Inter-BBS leagues
YOUR TABLE.
EVERY BBS.
ONE LEAGUE.
Daily Yacht connects to the same standalone dbserver as Daily Blocks. One server runs two separate competitions: each game keeps its own players, scores, rankings and league data.
Shared rankings
Compare daily, monthly and lifetime scores against players from all participating BBSes.
BBS vs BBS
Monthly board standings count each BBS's best game per day, keeping small systems competitive.
Random rolls
Unlike Daily Blocks, the dice are random for each game. Nobody can scout today's rolls on another board.
Resilient sync
If the league server is unavailable, keep playing locally and sync scores when it comes back.
Join the BBSWORDLE league
Three lines. You're in.
Add these to dyacht.ini. Your next caller connects and your BBS joins the Daily Yacht competition automatically.
