Not working

This game won’t open, no options for suppo Ty

My favorite game, but…….

I loved this game as a kid. My friends and I would play for hours. The calculator was invented it made it 1000 times better. I still love it a lot.

Now to the “but” part. I have figured out the algorithm and I’m able to play the same exact game for over 100 Rolls. Both the Computer and I get the same sequence of rules endlessly. I spent a few hours riding down each role for both me and the Computer. I know this sounds insane, but there’s a way to make the game start the same way repeatedly. I won’t detail it here.

At any rate, I still love this game tremendously and have played it literally thousands of times since I bought it for $.99. A steal in my book.
Thank you so much for figuring out how to make it available electronically.

Some larger, bank notes and share notes would be greatly appreciated.

Dice are not rigged

I think the algorithm reflects the true odds of each dice roll.
If in doubt, create a table for each dice roll and observe if there is a major deviation from real dice probability.
It would be more work to create a mathematically non-natural bias different between human and AI and it serves no purpose. The bias is in the user's perception IMHO.

It a lot of fun BUT…

This game is great and follows the board game well. However, the dice rolls are clearly rigged here. In some other games you can choose a “bias” for the dice or choose fully random… I sure wish you could do that here.

Great Game - Dice still Rigged

I loved playing this game back in high school. So much so, my friend and his mom extended the game by creating larger currencies and creating some minor house rules (e.g. buying 1 share was assumed). This digital version is great and I keep coming back to it even though the dice rolls are not random. The developers should either 1) fix the dice rolls so that they are truly random 2) generate pre-rolled dice (say 10,000), shuffle those and then doll out the dice sequentially like cards.
