## Review summary

Users praise Original Yatzee for smooth play, offline support, a clean UI, and versatile modes, with minimal ads. However, persistent bugs and scoring glitches—including zeros, incorrect scores, and occasional auto-fill—paired with crashes and UI readability issues, undermine reliability. Some reviews also mention AI/opponent glitches. Overall, the app is enjoyable and accessible but needs stability and accurate scoring fixes.

- Attractive, simple UI that feels like real Yahtzee.
- Offline play (no WiFi) and battery efficient.
- Supports multiple modes: solo, computer opponent, and multiplayer.
- Low-intrusion or minimal ads (small footprint).

### Cons

- Frequent bugs and glitches, especially scoring errors like zeros or mis-scores.
- Crashes or freezes that reset rolls or cause loss of progress.
- UI/readability issues: scoresheet too small, tiny typeface, cramped board.
- Opponent/AI behavior glitches, including scores auto-filling.
