Are you reading these reviews developers?
**UPDATE** on 4/10/16:
I finally figured out why this app is so irksome to me and it involves an assumption that when you are playing someone, theres an innate expectation that you are playing THEM. However, it dawned on me that youre actually playing the code writers who have inserted themselves into the game with their ridiculously frequent [what should be] low percentage rolls that change the course of the game, sometimes a few times. Its like passive aggression x10 control freaky playing. But it has the [probably] intended effect of making an average player seem on par with a more experienced player.
===================
Like so many that have written reviews, Im frustrated with the lack of randomness on the dice rolls. I sent an email and the response was that they use ARC 4 for computing "random" rolls and that they tested it a kajillion times and its working perfectly. ITS NOT RANDOM! There are too many instances of incredibly perfect moves--for both sides, to be fair.
And then add the unstableness of the app with too many frozen games. Plus, has anyone figured out how to chat?
Please fix these issues!
It sounds like the original version worked well, for good players at least. Those who cant play well should learn and quit whining when you lose. But apparently theres more money to be made this way. Id pay extra for a truly random dice roll and stable app.
Pretty please?
