Like the options and game levels
Enjoying the game but noticed the computer has the advantage. For the some reason the dice often rolls the exact number to catch the only chip left by itself. The computer rolls more doubles than the player. I just played and the computer had doubles for 5 rolls and then repeatedly rolled exactly what it needed to land on my piece.
Love this version its the best yes it is love it
I’d happily pay a fee to get rid of the ads. I don’t see an option to do that. If it was just an ad in between games, or two or three add breaks within a game this would be great. But interrupting gameplay every couple minutes for 30 seconds of an ad makes it incredibly not worth it for me.
Always very challenging
Love this game!!!
Very enjoyable!
