The story is about two warring alien spaceships, each trying to abduct more
cows than the other spaceship. But it's really just a cute way to score
Yahtzee -- to move a cow towards you, you effectively roll dice (with
up to three re-rolls) to create certain combinations, and then use that
to move the appropriate cow piece towards you.
The game, in my opinion, is a very good improvment on Yahtzee, despite all
the ridiculing it seemed to receive in the playroom. It turns the dry
arithmetic solitaire nature of Yahtzee into a direct one-on-one challenge.
It's not good enough to turn it into a game that I'd necessarily play
repeatedly, but it sure deserves to replace Yahtzee (and I bet definitely
won't).
