### 4/5 — ////o

*2025-04-07, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 4/5 — I am a T&”t

*2025-03-25, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 3/5 — Great game but buggy

*2025-03-22, version 4.17.1*

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

### 4/5 — Few adjustments required

*2024-05-23, version 4.13.0*

Uckers is uckers but with the limited community, it would be better if you could add people as friends, see how many players are online and block players who rage quit because they can’t handle being humiliated or losing their last bit and sitting around like I did for 20 minutes whilst they revealed their 6 throwing abilities and blobbed my doorsteps. Just lose gracefully.
Often look for 10-15 minutes until I get a game.

### 4/5 — Great Game few players

*2024-05-16, version 4.13.0*

Such a great game and transferred over to the app perfectly, there just never seems to be any players online to play against. Playing against the bot doesn’t quite scratch the itch the same!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2024-04-03, version 4.12.0*

As ex RN it’s fantastic that someone has been able to develop Uckers as an app, making it life like has opened up the opportunity to play different rules & against anyone anywhere.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-04-03, version 4.12.0*

This is a great app. It’s just like being back in the mess at sea.

### 4/5 — New Uckers and being refined

*2024-04-02, version 4.12.0*

Ex RAF Armourer who loves Uckers, this app is new and is being more refined as the days go by, with additional rule sets (for those non-RN types that like to play harder 😂), WhatsApp interaction, functionality etc. 

I am a subscriber currently but even if you aren’t you can play 1 offline practice game a day so you can relive your misspent hours in the crewroom, although not with Custom rules as these are only available to subscribers, but the custom rule sets do go some way to bringing back the multitude of rule sets found in RAF crew rooms etc!

Take a look, it’s certainly worth a go and with plans for more improvements to come, here’s hoping for more rule sets and functionality like Sounds, Background Music etc

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2024-04-02, version 4.12.0*

What a blast from the past. So good to battle on the Uckers board again. Lots of memories and fun for all vets.submariners do it deeper.

### 5/5 — Thrilling game!

*2024-03-29, version 4.12.0*

I played Uckers in the Navy and am absolutely loving this app. It’s a thrilling game of strategy; fast-paced, packed with features and absolutely heaps of fun.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It’s Ok but missing soo much

*2026-05-27, version 4.18.2*

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.

### 1/5 — It’s crashed.

*2025-05-27, version 4.18.0*

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.

### 1/5 — It’s crashed.

*2025-03-26, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 1/5 — Can’t load past the data privacy screen

*2024-09-19, version 4.13.2*

Unable to start game as can’t accept data privacy settings in app. Needs sorting asap

### 1/5 — Frozen screen

*2024-08-15, version 4.13.2*

Love Tucker’s when I was serving so saw the app and downloaded it. As soon as I get to the personal data screen the app freezes  so sadly only 1 star.

### 1/5 — Very slow gameplay and massively overpriced subscriptions.

*2024-04-09, version 4.12.0*

This is so much slower than I would expect. No functionality to change rules unless you pay them half an Amazon prime subscription every month. Not for me. Better uckers apps available.

### 2/5 — One more thing

*2025-05-16, version 4.18.0*

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.

### 2/5 — What has happened?

*2025-01-25, version 4.16.0*

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.

### 2/5 — No players

*2024-09-27, version 4.13.2*

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.

### 3/5 — Needs Work

*2025-12-14, version 4.18.2*

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

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Move time

*2026-05-18, version 4.18.2*

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.

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2025-05-16, version 4.18.0*

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

### 5/5 — Make a Mistake….

*2025-04-12, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 5/5 — Hooked on Uckers

*2025-03-14, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 5/5 — Can’t stop playing. This is so addictive!!!

*2025-03-12, version 4.17.1*

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.

### 5/5 — Fantastic version of the great game

*2025-03-12, version 4.17.1*

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!

### 5/5 — Great game keeping RN tradition alive

*2024-10-16, version 4.15.0*

Well built and fun to play.

### 5/5 — Constructive Criticism

*2024-06-29, version 4.13.0*

Game is flawed. Let me explain. Firstly I’ve yet to meet any other player on line so only played against the auto bot. Secondly, it’s easy to win because the auto bot doesn’t follow normal sensible uckers rules. Examples:
1. When in a situation where a player would move any other piece to prevent getting a “mixy blob” behind the other players blob, thereby preventing the opportunity for a “six off” the auto bot readily mixes up. 
2. When running for home to prevent an eight piece dicking, it never runs the nearest color i.e if a blue could be run home easily to score - it runs a green all the way around the board. 
3. Even if moving a single piece would make more sense, if a double is thrown, any blob is advanced, even if that gives the advantage to the other player. 
4. When a six is thrown, instead of “sixing” the blob on or near the opponent’s doorstep, the auto bot gets out a piece thereby enhancing the possibility of mixing up behind that blob.

### 5/5 — Ex Navy

*2024-05-16, version 4.13.0*

Love the game, it’s not the same as feeling the dice but great fun all the same, I would like to have some ‘in game’ chat

### 5/5 — Warning! This game will take over your life

*2024-05-06, version 4.12.0*

I haven’t played for nigh on 40 years but three days in and I’m completely obsessed! The tutorial is great for laying out the basic rules and even if you don’t subscribe you get a daily freebie against the computer to refine your skills. Once I’m confident I can hold my own, I’m all in. 
If you think it’s ‘just Ludo’, think again. It’s strategic, exhilarating, frustrating and at times brutal.
