Just a comment: There exists already gtali in Debian which should be
just a different implementation of the same game. It is part of
gnome-games and the description contains
 * gtali - sort of poker with dice and less money
which is not optimal.

I suggest to change the descriptions of both games to contain all common
names for the game such as Yahtzee, Knubbel, Kniffel, Pasch, ... so that
one finds it during a search.
Maybe refering to each other is also a good idea ("a game similar to
(openyahtzee|gtali from gnome-games)").
