## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very lucky computer

*2025-07-27, version 1.0*

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.

### 1/5 — Too biased

*2023-11-28, version 1.0*

Programmed so the computer almost always wins, even from seemingly unwinnable positions. Not fun!

### 2/5 — Very lucky computer

*2025-07-15, version 1.0*

Sometimes 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.

### 2/5 — Cheats

*2024-01-05*

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.

### 4/5 — Too many doubles for computer

*2024-08-21, version 1.0*

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!

### 4/5 — Great for learning

*2024-06-16, version 1.0*

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