It seems like the game maker couldnt figure out how to make the computer smart, so instead they loaded the computers dice. They roll 4s many, many more times than you will. Still pretty easy to beat, but feels cheap and frustrating when it happens. I dont know if this game gets a little like tic-tac-toe if the players are balanced, or maybe two good players will end up having to play for hours, but the loaded dice solution isnt ideal in any case.

Bad AI and loaded dice for computer
Dice response
As the person who did the programming, I can tell you first-hand that the randomization function is exactly the same for the player as for the computer opponent.
Ehhhh
I wish it had all the other ways to play it. The board game I have has different rules so I was it were different
Great game--bugs fixed.
Im just revising my earlier critical review of this game. This post iOS5 update had eliminated the bugs and crashing issues as far as I can tell. Glad theyve got this working again. Great game. Even before iOS5 came out this game would always restart itself when you went to screen saver. This seems to be fixed too.
Disappointed
I used to enjoy this game a lot, but no more. Why couldnt you make it backwards compatible to earlier iOS versions as other app developers have done?
Buggy!
Havent been able to play a complete game yet. Each time it gets stuck and play just halts. For example, my last game, I rolled the dice and couldnt move so the game popped up with message that my turn was skipped, but the computer never took her turn. So I couldnt take my turn, the computer wasnt taking her turn. I guess the game is over?
Game freezes
Good game but the game freezes when the the turn is skipped because there are no turn in round. I mean when my opponent (computer) has no turn and his turn is skipped the game freezes. Please fix
