Very lucky computer

Basically this game cheats.
I can’t believe how lucky the computer gets in this game, and how often I get the only roll combination possible to allow the computer to make a comeback.

Too many doubles for computer

Love this version but the only frustration is the number of doubles the computer gets when lifting off the board. Can’t play this anymore - so geared in favour of the computer!

Great for learning

I only learnt to play a couple of weeks ago. Running at a steady 1:3 wins. No adverts straightforward and simple LOVE it!

Cheats

Simple game that I like. However, the dice rolls are not random; the computer gets great rolls just when it needs them.

I was hoping for a true simple game with true random rolls. Hopefully the developer will modify appropriately.
