If your iPhone is in silent mode, you will NOT HEAR any SOUND. This is intended. By touching the screen, the dice are covered, so you can play various dice games that require a dice cup. If a player opens the cover and "lifts the dice cup" this can be heard by a popping sound. Dice Cup does NOT ANIMATE the Dices. In a dice cup you also do not see the dices rolling! Dice Cup allows you to play games where only the shaking person can see the dices and then can pretend what he just rolled. If you need animated dices to have fun playing a dice game PLEASE DO NOT BUY IT! Mia, Liar Dice, Liars, Mexico, Meyer, Maya, Cheat, Bluff, Passage, Kniffel, Yahtzee, Yatzy, Hazard or other dice games can be played easily using dice cup. ... and the dice numbers are created with the known good rand() random number generator. Dice Cup was in the top 10 in different countries, including Mexico.
