Best version on App Store

Surprised I didn’t already leave a review as I have 4,575 games logged at this point but the most important app on my iPad. Highly recommended.

Small thing (literally) but today the dice were a lot smaller. Not sure if this is a glitch that will correct itself, would appreciate if someone could take a look. I have side by side screenshots if helpful

Terrible

The game has a mind of its own, I have to uninstall and reinstall way too much due to glitches. Not worth the trouble.

Can’t reset anymore

“New Game” doesn’t begin a new game anymore (it used to reset the scores for all players). How can I reset the scores/standings now? Love the game though!

Like the original

My low review is because the “earn cash” ad in the bright green (dimming the rest of the screen) is so obnoxious, I don’t want to play it. Cannot get rid of it.
