Best single player game available

All of the games out there seem to want you to play online. This is it always the most practical. I found this Game to be very good. It's Difficult AI plays very well. It doesn't appear to cheat - like rigged dice rolls etc.

Fun to play

A really good game though just noticed moves don’t align with the board. Hopefully will get fixed in next update.

Won’t allow permitted moves

System sometimes won’t allow permitted moves. It gets worse with time. It will allow only the moves suggested in “hints.”
