### 4/5 — Needs iOS update

*2017-11-03*

Great game, but needs iOS 11 update and a bug fix, when the player wins it locks and you have to shut down the app to play another game

### 4/5 — Computer cheats. :(

*2015-08-02*

I love this game, the look is so authentic, and it brings me much nostalgia. But playing vs the computer is tough: the computer gets very convenient dice so often! It's tough to win! Anyway, I'm happy it exists and will still continue to play.

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2013-06-16, version 1.2*

Reminds me of the fun times I used to have with my mother when I was a child.

### 5/5 — Very well made

*2013-06-16, version 1.2*

A very realistic game and well made!

### 5/5 — Omg😱

*2013-01-10*

I'm 13 and never knew they had this game on here, so I searched it up and there it was.   I told my mom and she was like omg I can't believe it. We have the real board game at home and now she can play it anywhere even when I'm not there to play.  She said it reminds her of when she was little and played this game.  Thanks for this awesome game!😀

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2012-12-10*

Elegant graphics and excellent game. Brought back so many memories.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-11-08*

I just want to say that this is a great game that I grew up playing and it's good to finally see it on the iPad. My only suggestion is if the developer can take advantage of the whole screen, this way the board will look bigger. Other than that, adding the ability to play against other players on their iOS devices or via online would be a great addition.

### 5/5 — great!!!!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-12-02, version 1.3*

Ridiculous computer programming 90% computer wins. Too bad.

### 1/5 — Doesn't Work

*2011-08-24, version 1.1.1*

Looks like a good and intriguing game but it does not work.  I toss the shells and it just goes immediately the other player.   I have tried over and over and it never let's me move a piece to the board.  If I am doing something wrong don't know what.   Could sure use better instructions too.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2021-01-20, version 1.3*

I really like this game except for the fact that playing pieces will not always stay where you move them. I have to constantly replay a move to get the piece to stay. Also when two game pieces occupy the same space it is hard to select  or move a game piece if one is headed in and one going out.Also the computer opponent get some really fantastic points almost seems unnatural!

### 2/5 — Beware! The shells are 'loaded'!

*2013-02-11*

Nicely presented, but when playing against the computer, it seems quite remarkably 'lucky'. High throws when it needs them, and precise ones which just happen to be the exact number that will take out your pieces from halfway across the board far too often. They should sort out the AI. Frustratingly hard even on easy level. Not like the real thing in one player mode. If you're playing with a friend, a good game.

### 3/5 — Want to Love it

*2019-10-15*

I really enjoy this game EXCEPT for the way the AI works. As with so many other games, it manipulates the AI level by influencing the dice rolls. It takes a lot of the fun out of it to know the dice rolls are not truly random. What’s the point of playing a game where the computer decides if you can win or not?

### 4/5 — Great (but not for iPhone)

*2024-04-29*

Great on iPad.  Really frustrating to move pips on iPhone…. keep scooting back to starting point.

### 4/5 — I like it

*2023-04-28*

I like the simplicity but moving the pieces to the green spots isn’t always easy, it doesn’t detect it fast. I would love to play against real opponents online. 
Also as a beginner it would be helpful if while playing against the computer if it could give some smart recommendations or suggestions, or maybe have a smart summary at the end rating each move done and what could’ve been a better alternative.(saw this at a chess game app) 

Great app overall, would love to see an update in the near future.🥰

### 4/5 — Help!

*2021-12-18*

I love “Barjees!” However, after a day or so from downloading it, when I open the app to play, I get a black screen and nothing else. When I delete the app then re-download it, I am able to play. Then the following day, it’s the same thing: a black screen.

What is going in?

### 4/5 — Online multiplayer

*2020-07-12*

Its an awesome game ! 
I remember it , when i was a child ! 
Playind with my grandparent and my neighbor in “jabal” ! 
But,  Could please link it to fb maybe so we could play online multiplayer with our friends ?

### 4/5 — Sound effects & other apps

*2018-08-28*

Of course I love barjees! That’s why I’m on it all the time :) however, I have found that I can’t turn off the sound effects even after switching it off in the settings. Also, I used to be able to listen to music and play barjees. Now it silences any other app while you are actively playing a game.

### 5/5 — Online

*2020-06-03, version 1.3*

### 5/5 — The best Game ever made

*2020-05-18, version 1.3*

Thank you for making this beautiful game is just one of the best i Don't know how a lot of people don't play that interesting game I recommend people to download and enjoy this game 
Thanks

### 5/5 — Very great app

*2020-03-24, version 1.3*

Its very important to add it to Google Store apps for android devices.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2018-04-07*

It took me back years to when I used to play it with family and friends as we sat on the floor around the “rouq’a” and threw the “wadaa’” this Electronic version is realistic and fun to play, I highly recommend it to all ages.

### 5/5 — Amazing Recreation of Barjees

*2018-02-01, version 1.3*

It is accurately designed to look like the real game and is very addicting. 
The only downside is that the computer gets exactly the number or steps, whether 1 or 27, to kill you, and it is unfair.

### 5/5 — Great

*2017-12-30*

Great game. Well done.

### 5/5 — أشكر المطور وأعتذر له

*2017-12-29, version 1.3*

كل الشكر لك على تطويرك للبرنامج واتقدم بالعذر منك على اسلوبي في التعليق سابقاً .
ونتمنى مستقبلاً الاهتمام أكثر باللعبة من ناحية عند اختيار اللاعب للحجر ويريد وضعه في مكانه يكون هنالك صعوبة في وضعه وحبذا اذا كان بالامكان ان يكون البرسيس بملئ الشاشة يتوافق مع شاشة الجوال اي كان نوعه وحجم شاشته .
وفي الشكر لك وكل الشكر 🙏🏻🌹
