### 4/5 — Two Player Option

*2014-01-25*

We have enjoyed this game for a long time but the two player option had disappeared. Please bring it back!

### 3/5 — Not updated in a long time

*2013-09-27*

This app has not been updated in a long time, so there is no support for the bigger display of the newest iPhone and iPod Touch generations, which is a shame because the game is actually really good. Unfortunately there are also some stability issues. I am giving it only 3 out of 5 stars because it could really use an update but no one on the developers' side seems to care any more.

### 5/5 — Solid, well done, love it!

*2013-01-27*

The most-played game on my iPhone. Excellent. No complaints whatsoever.  Thanks.

### 3/5 — immer noch kein Retina Display support

*2012-09-17*

Das Spiel gefällt mir sehr gut. Leider wird immer noch nicht das Retina Display des iPhone 4/4s unterstützt. Das trübt dann leider doch die Spielfreude. Und wenn man die Lautstärke regelt, regelt man automatisch die Klingeltonlautstärke. Das ist ziemlich ärgerlich, da ich deshalb schon einige Telefonanrufe nicht gehört habe, weil ich nach dem Spiel vergessen hatte die Lautstärke wieder zu maximieren. Also habe ich in den Einstellungen den Sound des Spiels ausgeschaltet. Ist aber schade.

### 4/5 — Almost flawless...

*2012-09-11*

Nice app, very well done. Three things would make it even better.  The first two are game-play flaws, the last is just mildly annoying:
1. If you've already filled "Five Dice" (yahtzee) with a zero, a roll of five of a kind should qualify for 25 points in Full House, but the game gives zero. 
2.  In the same situation, if you roll five of a kind on the first or second roll, but you have no way to get points with it (e.g. five 3's when all you need is 2's), the game doesn't allow you to discard all dice and throw the remaining roll(s).
3.  If you don't get a top 20 score (ie. virtually every game after you've played a couple hundred), the game says "Oops! You need to practice more."  No, I don't think so.  I played fine, I just didn't get lucky dice this time. Ironically, the more you play, the more likely it is you'll see this silly little message.  How about "Nice Game!"... or maybe no message.  As my grandmother would say, if you don't have something nice to say, just don't say anything at all. 

But on the whole I still like the game and would recommend it over other Yahtzee-like apps I sampled.

### 5/5 — Great Yahtzee-style game

*2012-06-26*

Far better than the others I've found. Solid app, no ads.

### 5/5 — Best game on iPhone/iPod

*2012-03-13*

I was obcessed with this game on the jailbroken phone. Now I love it even more. 4 dollars is too much compared with other games but is a great deal compared to the cost of a value meal.

### 4/5 — Very Very Good

*2011-09-10*

This new version is a great improvement as it does not crash every five minutes. What is now needed is a version that will self orientate for the iPad!

### 1/5 — crashes sometimes (fix it!)

*2011-08-15, version 1.52*

i bought this app, and it was fine until it crashed! i demand my refund! dont buy this app at all

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2011-08-10, version 1.52*

Great app!!!!!!!!!
