Popular dice game Yahtzee is coming to iPad with a score of unique features and enhancements.

Along with expected graphical enhancements to take advantage of the device's high resolution screen, EA Mobile is introducing an exclusive mode and local multiplayer.

Joining the game's Standard mode is Duplicate Rainbow mode. Unfortunately, EA Mobile neglected to explain just how the mode operates.

Three friends can join you for multiplayer rounds using a single iPad. No word on whether you can use an iPhone or iPod touch as a remote score card, similar to the Scrabble Tile Rack application for the iPad version of word game Scrabble.

Facebook Connect features prevail in this iPad edition of Yahtzee. EA says that you can post high scores and issue challenges via the social network.

Yahtzee will be available for iPad later this summer at an undisclosed price.
