Don’t waste time unless you want to have ads block your game
Can’t even play when they ads cover the entire game and can’t close out of them!

Bugs
Fun game if you can handle having to force close it constantly. There are a couple of issues with the interface: ads at top cover content, and buttons that should allow you to close or select the home button are unresponsive. You basically have to force close it about 4 times per match. Luckily, it does save your progress.
Hard to play with friends
My fiancée and I downloaded to try to play together but it’s been impossible to figure out how to play together. It only lets you play with randomized people and, with how they play, seems like bots. Plus if you’re trying to access stats or your settings, you can’t press any of the buttons as soon as the pop up ads start. You have to open the app and immediately click the button you want and hope you can get back out before the banner app traps you and you have to restart the app. Happy to upgrade reviews if fixes to these issues are made!
Too many ads
Great game but so many ads you can’t back out of and you can’t get back to the game without 5 or 6 pop ups if at all FIX IT
Boring
After playing over 50 games and never losing I've realized what a boring game this is. Personally I like to play a game that challenges me. This one does not.
Hot rolls
Hot ad intrusion, geez man ease up on the adds, I get one turn in a game and have to watch an ad then turn 2 and yep another ad then turn 3 , well I don’t know because I deleted it
Not worth it
The game is fun and I could see my self easily playing it all the time but the amount of ads is ridiculous. I could see one in between every game but one after every turn just makes you want to quit. Instant delete when it kept happening. Also the fee for no ads is not permanent no ads which means you’ll have to keep paying
Great ad watching app.
Really fun to have an app for watching ads that is occasionally interactive.
GodAhla
I like the game but I hate how they try to force you to lose. This is the fifth time I’m playing a tournament and the opponent isn’t there the screen sits like it’s frozen and when I hit the arrow to move on it tells me I will lose the game if I move on that’s the only thing that makes you not like the game or this app. Because I’m a perfectionist and I don’t lose and you can’t even contact anyone. Because I did complain about it and no one respond back. So for that I give this game 1 star. And it only gets the 1 star because I really love the game. So till this is fixed it’s a bum app.
It’s not working.
This is the worst game I am sorry I haven’t made my money yet I keep waiting for it I played this and tried to make money like a million times but it doesn’t work.
So many ads
The game is OK, but what makes it boring is the incessant pop ups. Play one turn (ad) play second turn (pop up to spin the wheel but must watch an ad) play third turn (ad) play fourth turn (nothing) play fifth turn (ad) I mean what is more annoying when trying to play a game. I would understand if there was an ad after every match but almost literally after every turn is ridiculous. Then the pop ups to pay $10 for ads to go away. Ummmmm no, your game isn’t that fun to pay to play without interruption.
Payouts
If you play this game from a different app for money in the app that’s offered it lets you hit level 24 then you’re supposed to win 30.00 but it stays pending and you never receive it. It is not worth the time to teach the levels for 130.00 or more because it stops paying on level 20 bad game to play for money you mite as well take the 17.50 and close it plus I watched so many commercials that pay big they don’t after the points so i give it a one star only because I can’t hit a zero star on it.
Could be fun
Out of the ten games I played, whoever (or is it whomever?) plays first ends up the winner. The first player tends to get one more roll. I’d like an explanation on why that’s fair. For example I had a score of 683. My opponent had 632. But they rolled enough to pass the 750 mark on their next turn. Why would I not get a chance to beat their score considering I had one less turn? Fix that and I’d give the game 10 stars.
Frustrated
I open to play this game again after work and it tells me I have too many active games open. And then it just gives me a blank green screen. How do I close the active games if all I get is a green screen?
ADs Galore!
Only thing you will do is watch ads every turn! It’s awful! Game is fun and relaxing but jeez the ads get old fast.
…
So many ads it’s so irritating..then they make you watch the ads all the way through so needy & money hungry
Too many ads
It’s an overall decent game. It feels a little like Yahtzee and craps at the same time.
I had to play through 3-4 advertisements each game though. The only ad-free option is temporary and cost $10.

Too many ads and too easy
It’s an addictive game but the game faces two problems. First the ads are coming constantly. Second the game is silly. After winning 35 consecutive times I got bored. They make you feel you play a human but you play a machine playing silly.
NO ADS ARE RIDICULOUSLY PRICED
Cool addicting game with a fair amount of ads. For no ads, it’s $9.99 for 5 DAYS which is over $40.00 a month. CRAZY
Too many ads and glitches
The game is fun but it has too many ads. Ive also had multiple ads with no way to close the ad. I had to force close the entire app and reopen to clear the ap.
Your ads suck and you don’t know what free means
I love the idea of your game, but there should be no ad until the game is over.
Every freaking other role I get an ad and I’m sorry when it says a free spin on the wheel it’s not free if I have to watch an advertisement that’s for the next spin
Your game is wonderful but the ads are out of control and far too frequent.
And look up what free means
I don’t have to do anything to get something that’s free on the other games
So now I’m gonna go play some games made by people who understand the English language and how annoying their ads are.
I’m never going to pay the money for your game or anyone else’s to get rid of ads because you don’t want it every year I’m not paying to get rid of ads every year
Put the apps for a dollar like we used to have and I’ll be happy to buy iTunes cards and enjoy buying apps that have no advertisements

To many ads
Fun game made unplayable by ads and certainly not worth paying $9.99 for 5 days of free ads. I’ll find a different game to enjoy.
Fun but the ads
The game is fun to play. Great concept. You get going into a game and then a ad pops up. Ads,ads and more ads. Do they need so many?
LONG ADS
I hate ads that are WAY TOO LONG!! Delete delete!! Their hints on best move to make are continuous but I didn’t take time to see if I can disable the feature
Locks up
Fun game, constantly locks up & have to close & go back in. Same after ads, doesnt go back to game. Way too many ads - will probably delete it.
pop ups break the game
Usually i really like games from this company/style, but this one is just buggy. Any time theres a pop up to “pay to remove ads” or if it forces you to the collection level screen, it wont let you leave. Idk if its the banner ads preventing the ‘x’ and ‘back’ buttons from working or if they just don’t work at all, but having to close the game every few rounds to make it work is miserable. Im not complaining about the presence of ads, but how they seem to prevent the game interface from working as the rest of these games clearly show it can.
Frozen ads
Whenever there is an ad during a game, it won’t let me X out to close it and go back to my game.
Way too many adds
Played the game for 10 minutes and got like 20 ads lol. What a joke, the game would be fun but you play against fake people and there is an ad after every turn.
Fix this and you’ll get 5 stars
Whenever a spin the wheel pops up the X button does not work same with main menu stuff the settings buttons at the top do not work, it’s not my device, I have a iPhone 15 pro, in case its device specific
Fun but make the top menu work!
The top menu doesn’t work so you have to close the game constantly to get back to the home
Page or any other section of the game. Fun game but it is frustrating. Please fix!

Something strange
I noticed that I have not lost a single game. It was fun at first but not it has gotten pretty boring. It’s not challenging. But going through the reviews it looks like no one loses.
An ad after every roll
Changing my previous review. So many glitches I can’t get through a few rounds without having to leave entirely due to glitching
LOVE this game BUT too many ads during the game
LOVE this game BUT too many ads during the game. I don’t mind ads but put them at the END of the game and not during the game. This game is a lot of fun but I’m deleting. I’d probably pay $5 for no ads because the game really is that much fun but I’m not paying $10!
Offer anti-shake dice helper
Please… For the love of a true strategy game could you PLEASE offer GAMEPLAY settings where the dice does not shake in trying to telling you which one to choose?!
It’s very distracting to see it shake over and over, rushing you to then pick, it causes a lot of distraction to be able to think for yourself so please create a button to be able to disable that option in settings or in the matches.
Otherwise It feels very forcing and not as fun and not playing on your own when you do t want the extra assistance.

Crashes > I will be reloading
I cannot stand games pretending to be fair heads up matches in the first place… but I opened before noticing game developer so here we are.
I've given it a more than fair shot by closing and reopening the game about 6 times now. I was hoping to make it to the second level but I can waste time on tik Tok.

Needs less computer interference
This could be a really good game except for the constant computer interference. I want to be able to choose my own combinations without the computer constantly making suggestions and “shaking” the dice at me. Please add a feature where the computer suggestions can be turned off in the settings. If that change is made, I would re-download the game. But for now, the game is too annoying to be played and will be uninstalled.
Bad tutorial
This game works well on my phone but not on my iPad. In the tutorial I am instructed to tap on a die but the second die is not inside the highlighted area and therefore the tutorial does not work. I have deleted the game then reinstalled it however the highlighted area is still not in the position to allow a tap of the second die. Hope you have a solution, it’s a very good game.
