User Reviews

Reviews are mixed. Many praise the presentation, sound, and ease of use, with some noting fair dice and minimal ads. However a sizable portion claim the game is rigged or biased, with AI frequently winning and forcing moves. Some users report monetization hurdles and paying to alter rules, plus occasional loading problems and awkward controls. Overall the app looks great and plays well for some, but concerns about fairness and usability keep it from a clean consensus.

Pros

Dice rolls feel fair and random in several reviews.
Attractive graphics and themes.
Sound effects are nice and relaxing.
Easy to use with a clean, straightforward interface.
Low ad load or unobtrusive advertising.

Cons

Perceived rigging or bias in dice and AI advantage.
Forced or suboptimal moves that benefit the computer.
Monetization concerns tied to changing rules or difficulty.
Loading issues or occasional crashes.
Occasional awkward controls / user interface problems.

This game cheats, making five moves after rolling doubles, not the four moves you get to make after rolling doubles. The game is rigged and forces you to make moves which result in your opponent rolling just the number needed to hit your marker and send you back to the beginning. When you are near to bearing off your last markers, your opponent hits you and the numbers you need to get down from the bar are not rolled until all of your opponent’s markers have entered the “end zone”, leaving you to try to catch up. I’m done with this game.

The opponents dice rolls seem to favor them. Often they get just the right roll they need. And now they get doubles upon doubles. 3 double sixes in a row!??? Really!! This game is not realistic and it’s not user friendly either. Trying to figure out how to increase level difficulty (buy tokens but how many do I need?) trying to change rules of play, etc. Anything you want to change cost you $$$. And when playing another (human?) online I’m never sure it’s not a computer player.
