Board Kings: Board Dice Games

They massively jacked up the cost to upgrade buildings, got bad reviews, then decreased the cost.... but also massively decreased board revenue, negating the reduction of the cost. I may still play casually when I'm bored enough, but I will no longer make any in-app purchases.... which is a shame because this was one of my favorites... Now, it's barely worth playing at all, even for free.

It's a fun game. Easier to play when you pay. Harder, but can still be fun if you play for free. I have paid for some. I have to pay more the next time. My friend who rarely pays does just as well if not better, just not as fast. Much funner with friends. 😉 I liked it better when you could choose your boards and dice. Now the vending machine is almost useless. Gems used to come in treasure drops. 😕 More tragedy, May 1st 2024 the made money worth less. You make less pay less, but WHY?

Super fun game. A few glitches, and sometimes you dont get your rewards, but I'm sure they will fix it in time. Sometimes a little glitchy. But all around, it's a great way to pass the time and have fun. UPDATE 03/29/2023 They still have major glitches. Pay attention to rolls, carrots, and coins received because you don't always get them, and if you purchase any of their packs, you should always get what you pay for even in regular play. All.about the money anymore.

I like the game. It's fun. Don't like how people I don't know can come on my board. I don't like all these advertising on the game either. Game freezes up. I go to somebody's board and get locked up and I hit the pink button to watch an add to free myself and I get kicked off and restarts. I've lost 2 train cards because of the game kicking me off.

Over all, I like the game. It's a fun, no brain power, but not boring game. However, 1. I think the balance of pay-to-play and roll-to-play is not great. 2. Also the amount of "buy this" offers every time you open the app gets old; I'd say it averages around 5 offers that you have to close out of each time. 3. And when watching an ad, it may or may not work for more dice rolls. And when I took the time to email support. They said they needed screenshots... which makes no sense.

I been playing this game for a couple of years now. At 1st was enjoyable. Now is just a money grab. 1 hour to get only 8 dice which means takes almost 12 hours to refill all dice. Ridiculous. And as you level up the cost of buildings is higher but the pay is less. The 2 stars are for the graphics and potential of the game. It's a shame developers have become more about money grab than actually making it playable and fun.

I honestly really did love this game until it got to the point to where I had to either spend a ton of money that I didn't have to move ahead at all, or basically only be able to play the game if I was lucky and lose out on all of the benefits of playing the game daily...... unfortunately the prices on the packages also went higher the further I got and I can't even afford to buy them if I want to.... also noticed that do you end up losing whatever package before so quickly and don't even have

Really fun, constantly has events and challenges going to keep it fresh, and they are not stingy with the dice like monopoly lol. Only thing I wish they would update is the train system. As you visit other boards it upgrades and changes colors, and at a certain point it stops and stay blue, it's a small pointless thing, I know, but would love for it to even just cycle back through the colors again or something.

Spending real money in other games can get you a whole lot VS spending anything in this game now. It's utter insanity the prices that they charge for what you actually get. You can spend $10 and still be stuck on the same board for over a week due to the high upgrade cost once you level up. What used to seem fair and enjoyable is no longer sustainable for the economic crisis that people all over the world are facing. The game actually gives me anxiety and frustration now, that's how sh1tty it is

This is about the most fun I've had in my life playing a board game. I've been playing faithfully , mostly on most of time than off . You always got just enough rolls to keep paying for a bit. The past year or more it seems almost impossible to keep playing and advancing to next board, close out a section of your sticker book or finish beating the monster at the end of a trail without spending a bunch of money that I just dont have. It's just so fun to play !!!! I look forward to playing it.

Addictive! I haven't found a game in awhile that held my interest. This is fun and reminds me of playing board games as a kid. I posted this in 2019 and I'm still playing and enjoying it 4 years later! Edit: Suddenly everything is reduced. It has taken the fun out of the game. Where I could win 100Q visiting a neighbor, or stealing, it's now 1Q. I feel like a beginner and can't progress. I'm deleting the game.

I love this! It's fun. It's cute. I don't usually do games, but this one is awesome. Purchase offers are constant, but play is fine without them. Ads are optional. Update 3/24: I played multiple times per day for ~2 years.... Now, a few times a month. -Lots of pressure to buy. Can't even get to your board w/o seeing all 3-6 specials/progress incentives... every time you open -Much harder to progress w/o buying. In-game currency system (gems, ugh) and what can be bought in the store have changed.

Latest update ruined the game experience. Have played this for years, every morning and night. This last update when they added the x20 roll, removed x2, x3 x10 and changed the money amounts is so frustrating. Firstly, I LOATHE rolling by x1. It is agonizing, not at all fun. Second, changing the money reduced the fun of seeing trillions of dollars AND for some reason it's nearly impossible now to get enough money in a playing session to upgrade even your least expensive building. So frustrated.

They have completely sucked the fun out of the game. I don't know how long I've been on the current level. With the low pay outs for everything it takes far longer than it used to. I've been on this level for so long the mini game is no longer active. I have spent real money in the past but no more. Not sure what the goal was with all the changes but if it was to make long time players angry then they've succeeded. Tried to leave only one star but wasn't allowed.

For some reason, it seems like every other time I log into the app the options I get for the roll multipler fluctuate. I liked having 1, 5, and 20 but now I have 1, 2,3,5 and 10. I wish you would give something in the settings where we can choose which multipliers we want to use and then they stay locked until we decide to use a different number.

I'm not certain "not having to make a purchase" should be listed as a top comment any more. I enjoyed the game for months, but it seems like it has become acutely pay-to-progress. I don't recall the last time I was able to complete a challenge, and the things that made it fun don't seem to be there. Basic things like getting rolls from the card tile no longer happen, being able to trade diamonds for rolls, etc. 20 min game sessions I enjoyed have become 2 minutes of price tags/1min play.

It's a decent game, but you get multiple nags to top up every time you launch the game. In addition, last month they said spins, rewards, etc., were getting boosted "going forward," but in the last week they throttled them back a lot. Now I try to disable notifications since I won't be playing it as often, but my setting keeps getting reversed. Now I may not play it more than once or twice a week.
