Something off?
Report an issueiFarkle is an addictive and entertaining 1 or 2 player version of the dice game Farkle (or Farkel) for the iPhone and iPod touch. Play with a friend or against the computer to be the first to achieve more than 10,000 points by rolling the dice for an exciting number of different scoring combinations.
Two-player mode includes the option of automatically flipping the screen between turns for players sitting across from each other at a table, on the floor, in the car, or on a plane.
iFarkle is simple to learn, and fun to play.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE COMPUTER DOES NOT "CHEAT"
The dice rolling mechanism is the same for both human and computer players: It is completely random.
If you are finding that the computer is always beating the pants off of you then you may want to either reduce the Computer's Play Style aggressiveness to "Meek" or simply take some chances and play more aggressively yourself. :)

8 of 25This game is fun but… The probabilities of dice rolls in this game are unrealistic. I see multiple 1500-2500 point rolls in a single game. I have been playing this game with real dice for over 20 years and have never seen rolls like these.
I loved this game. Kept me occupied during my husband’s surgery, but the loved soon died. When you play this for awhile you start to see a pattern with the computer and before long you are lucky to even win all on the easy level. Amazing when the computer scores 1000’s of points each round and you are luck to even get 150 points. I went from being ahead by over 1000 points to the computer getting 9000 in two rounds. I set my settings to where you have to score 1,000 before being award any points. Funny how two games back to back to back where I didn’t even score before the computer won and each turn it had it was scoring 1500+ on the easy level! 100% rigged... Developers either fix this and I update this review or I delete this game and leave 1 star so others won’t waste their time or money! I give the developers until August 1, 2019 to fix this problem or I’m gone and my review and rating stays.
I've been playing this game in real life since college. Friends and I would gather and party and play this game. I know how to play strategy. I've tried a few different electronic versions and I have to say, this is the most frustrating Farkle game I've ever tried to play. Trying to scrape together something big and have to settle for 350, then Computer rolls 2 sets of 3-of-a-kind (2500 pts) and then immediately rolls 3-of-a-kind 1's (1000.) I've been playing for 20 minutes and I've seen it happen n every single game, and sometimes twice in a game. If you Ike winning a game now and then, don't waste your money on this one.
This is NOT a random number generator game. 99% of the time the computer gets higher scoring points than me.
I love this game I love how you can just be competitive with it and you learn a lot
I really like this paid version of the game (thank you for a great price with no ads or IAPs). The design is minimalistic and modern, everything looks cool and runs smoothly, and it uses almost no battery. I’m finding it to be as fair as any dice game would be. I win just often enough that I want to keep playing. I lose more than I win, and some games are super close and go either way. This is on the meek setting, and I play fairly aggressively, taking risks. It strikes the right balance to me, doesn’t seem unfair. You do start to notice patterns in how the computer approaches a game, but that’s true of all AI games. This is well done, I really enjoy it. Thank you developer!
0. The day after I installed this app on my iPad Pro, I got stuck in Portrait mode and screen won’t rotate to Landscape mode. I doubt if this is a coincidence. The programmer probably only cares about developing games as fast as possible bypassing quality control. 1. Would be better if you could view in landscape mode if you have an iPad Pro with keyboard attached so you wouldn’t have to be sideways. 2. Would also be better if text were a bit larger. Maybe have an option for this. 3. Random?? I am skepticaal. Sometimes it seems round after round for several rounds you start with one pair while machine starts with 3 of a kind or better. Then you find yourself behind by thousands of points.
Sooooooooooo cool, if to get it for a ked DO IT!!!! The kid will have so much fun!!!!!
