It’s Ok but missing soo much

UI needs work. The tournament rules are awful, where is the option for a blob to move backwards on a double or jump another blob on a double. The game tends to become stagnant.

Update. Something seems off with the dice roll. Last 4 games I have had at best 1/3 the 6’s of my opponent.
Playing the CPU is a farce. Miraculously alway gets the correct number needed to get you or the roll gives you the only miner that screws you over.

Move time

Is it possible to reduce the move time from 1min 30secs to a minute as a fast game is always a good game at least that’s what I was always told. Oh and by the way the game is great and has brought back many a good memory when playing in the Squadron crew room, especially on night shift when we weren’t up to our necks in aircraft fault rectification. Cheers.

Needs Work

It needs attention to detail before I commit to paying for the app. I win every time as the bot is too predictable.

It’s crashed.

It’s crashed. Playing an opponent who timed out, it then took 1000 points from me! Started another game and the same opponent came up, it’s their turn and nothing is happening.

Really need to sort out the amount of players running the time out to swerve being 8 pieced. Must be about 8 people now who just abandon the game to save their stats. Let me know how to post the screen shots of the players jumping ship.

Hi Anthony, I'm afraid that if you lost the 1000 points, it is you that timed out. Clearly you are having wifi issues which is disrupting your game. We can't control that unfortunately, but good connectivity is a pre-requisite in any online gaming app where two or more players are competing. I hope you can get it sorted and eventually rejoin and enjoy the game that many, many others are loving. If you have further issues, please drop us a line with screenshots to hello@uckers.com

One more thing

In addition to my recent review, the scoring mechanism is woeful, particularly for the ‘global league’. Use an ELO system like chess, so it isn’t just the people who play a lot and don’t quit or up-board end up top of the leaderboard with zero skill. People with hundreds of wins but a couple of 8-pieces should be put on a different scoring system altogether.

I’ve been informed that the above is factually incorrect. The global system still rewards those who just slog out (and have the time for) loads and loads of games as all but their top 10 games get deleted. Whatever the scoring system is, it’s (in my opinion) rubbish and needs an overhaul.

Thank you for the review Gaptooth Gypsy, but that isn't the way the scoring works. We DO have a ranking system and, for the Global League, only your top 10 games each week count. Please contact us directly so that we can arrange a call to talk you through it - hello@uckers.com (we cannot find out who you are to reach out directly). We don't mind fair reviews, but I'm afraid yours is factually incorrect on all fronts. We look forward to hearing from you.

Addictive

Probably better known to most as Ludo however any ex Navy person played this version which is particularly competitive
I really like the Global league which is getting me into so much Afro with the wife for the amount of time I spend on it

Hi pantherfan, thanks for the review and the 5-stars. Great to hear that you're enjoying the app and getting involved with the Global League (though I think you're getting 'agro' from the wife rather than 'afro' 😄 - or perhaps not? 🤷‍♂️. May your blobs never be mixed!

Make a Mistake….

I recently gave a “one star” review and complaint about being unable to undo moves. It turns out there is an “undo” function that I had totally not seen during gameplay…..my fault. So I’ve edited my scoring on this occasion to 5 stars.

Thank you to the developers for pointing out my mistake.

Keep up the good work with this game. Loved it for years and missed playing it when I left the RAF.

Oh Bodeen, you CAN undo moves! There is an 'undo' button at the bottom right of the screen. Additionally, your move is ONLY confirmed when you press the green tick. Try it out and if you are still having problems, drop us a line at hello@uckers.com and we'll help you out. We hope you'd reconsider your review score in light of this information 😊

////o

Get me a G+T someone’s getting 8-pieced!

Just a minor quibble but, for example, you throw a 2 and a 3, you should be able to move 2 then 3, or, 3 then 2, landing on a different square as the situation dictates. The game only allows a single move of 5.

Hi there, thank you for the review. Hope you enjoyed your G&T. With regards to your minor quibble - you CAN do as you suggest. If you are able to move the necessary pieces, you can move one piece 2 and another 3. I think what you are saying though is that you would like to move one piece 2 (or 3), take a piece, and then move the same piece the remaining number. Actually, you can do this too - it is a rule variation that is selectable and is known as the 'running hack'. If you want to contact me further on this (or other quibbles 😄, please drop me a line - hello@uckers.com. May your blobs never be mixed!

I am a T&”t

I recently left a review about no free play option. Which is incorrect. When I downloaded the app I was confronted with a screen asking to upgrade or start a free trial then pay per month afterwards. As a grumpy old man this made me more grumpy and I never noticed that I could close this screen down thus achieving access to the game. Apologies to the developers as this is a great game and I hope it continues to thrive and deliver Uckers to the masses.

Great game but buggy

I enjoy playing, but the bugs are frustrating with no opportunity to report them for fixes, and example your opponent times out but you get -1000 points

Hi Jim, please contact us at hello@uckers.com to discuss this. I can assure you that you have not experienced a bug but connectivity issues. Happy to discuss this further with you to give you more details.

Hooked on Uckers

I am just hooked on this game. I played it years ago, when serving in the WRNS. I have so enjoyed brushing off the covers and playing again and improving my skills. Lots of tactics are involved in working your way around the board and preventing your opponent from doing the same. The doubles version is also great fun, working with your partner. If you can’t find a player with the auto match, then using the link to post on the WhatsApp group or invite a friend. The WhatsApp group also figures you the chance to discuss play with other players and flag up any queries with the developers, who respond very promptly. Great App, which will only grow.

Hi Alison, many thanks for the review and the 5 stars! We're thrilled that you're enjoying the app so much and that you're getting so much out of it. Lots more coming later this year - new features and more competition. We hope that your involved in the Uckers Global League and climbing the divisions! May your blobs never be mixed! 😄

Can’t stop playing. This is so addictive!!!

Uckers is the perfect blend of luck and strategy. The rules are easy to learn so good for players of all ages. Each match brings a new challenge which requires quick thinking and planning ahead. You can challenge others via what’s app in the Uckers game play group or be partnered via auto match. The developers have worked hard developing a global league which adds a truly competitive edge to the game.

Hi Monbac, thank you for your review and 5 stars. It is addictive isn't it 😄 We hope that you're enjoying the Uckers Global League and finding the facility to play really competitive Uckers against a wide range of skill levels really engaging. I hope to play you myself in the near future 😉

Fantastic version of the great game

Love this app! Lots of rule variations that bring back memories of playing the physical game. The introduction of a scoring system and timers is inspired! Highly addictive and, with the competitive element of a league - I can’t praise this enough. Brilliant!

Thank you for the 5 stars and the great review. We're pleased that you're reliving memories of your time in the Royal Navy. We put a lot of thought and effort into developing the scoring systems and the timers and, like you, believe that it takes the physical game to a new level. Hope to play you soon in the league! May your blobs never be mixed! 🤣🤣

What has happened?

Bought and enjoyed earlier version. Having spent 40 plus years playing this great strategy game 🤔 This version is WAFU. No longer on board with it and looking for a broom handle. Good luck, you may well need it.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review - we really appreciate you sharing your feedback! Did you check the Standard rules that are the default selection when starting a game? You won't find any WAFU rules there (we've named 'WAFU' rules 'Tournament Rules' in the app) so we're scratching our heads as to why you think this is the case? Please do reach out to us at hello@uckers.com so we can understand what you mean. Aside from being free (with no ads), this version has a number of benefits over the previous one you mention, why not explore the feature-rich solutions we offer - not just rule variations, but also the additional game timers, Global League and player stats. We're really happy to receive constructive feedback, but we respectfully ask you to check your review for accuracy please.

Very boring

Hi Matthew, Thank you for your feedback. Uckers is free to download and play, and if you feel the additional features don’t provide value for money, you can still enjoy unlimited online games without any cost. We’re sorry to hear you found Uckers boring, you are certainly in the minority here —we think it’s a great game and always strive to make it even better! If you have suggestions for improvements or features you’d like to see, we’d love to hear from you at hello@uckers.com. Best regards, The Uckers Team

Great game keeping RN tradition alive

Well built and fun to play.

No players

Been in the navy for 26 years and still going for my sins, playing Uckers is pretty much a daily thing for me even setting up practice games wit the sprogs.

This app is very good, however I have been on it every day and testing it last few days, and each time I goto play online…. It never finds any players at all and it’s frustrating, even though looks like I am 391 on the LB without playing. So I don’t understand how we play online when can’t find anyone to play with.

Hi Cozy, thank you for your feedback. The auto match is very much dependent upon us reaching a critical mass of players for it to function well, though it does seem to be very popular around 7-9am and 7-9pm. That said, most players use the 'invite friends' function which provides you with a link to share by email or social media platforms. Try this, you'll easily get your games going with old shippers. If you'd like to join one of our WhatsApp groups where there are plenty of gamers looking to mix blobs and dish out 8-piecers, drop me an email at hello@uckers.com and I'll send you a link. Our next release (in about a week) will have the ability to add friends, search for player and invite them directly to games without the need for a link. You'll also be able to see who's online real time.
