The look and feel, game play, graphics and sound are all great. But there are too many miracle rolls, and absurd coincidences. It's so bad, I'm able to call what will happen next with alarming frequency. I don't understand where app makers choose to code games this way. It's not fun. And you can't learn anything without true odds.

Best version I've found so far. It plays like real dice. Others I tried seemed off, the dice didn't roll like they do in real life. The ads aren't intrusive and annoying. The only thing that might improve it is the option to play triple games and do away with the score animation at the end of the game. Otherwise two thumbs up!

I love the ease of this game and that I can play solo. But, it is not random. It cheats and that really bugs me at times. Say I roll a 1,2,3,4 and another 4. If I hold all but the last 4 and roll, it always and I mean always rolls to the same number it was. Also, it's hard to get a straight but one I have one, I will roll sometimes 5 or more. Or if I am almost completed and need my 3s and 5s, I will roll 3 times and never get even one 3 or 5. This is rigged against you. But good game otherwise.

I used to love this game but then it changed completely. The free rolls are absolutely absurd the entire point of the game is to use three spins not six or seven. The stats were screwed up when it switched over too. Then today it seemingly switched back yet the game freezes every time a Yatzy happens. Not sure why the game needed to be changed because if it ain't broke don't fix it... now you need to fix it or else I'm done playing.

Great game! Very fun & great for pastime.. the only thing is I wish the dice would roll longer because a lot of times the dice you chose to roll again you get the same number a lot..it would really be great if it had an option for the dice to roll/spin longer ..or if the dice could just spin a little longer so that doesn't happen so much. Then the game would definitely be five stars!! The animations are great; & seeing how much points ahead of time in the boxes you want to play is great

The recent "new version" was awful, so first off, thank you for going back to the old format (it's much easier on the eyes). The reason I'm giving 2 stars at this time is because anytime a Yatzy is rolled by either player, my app screen shades gray and freezes. I'm then only given the option to leave the game, which sucks. Please fix this glitch and then I'll go back to 5 stars.

Keep an eye on how the points are not counted correctly. Had insufficient points but I still managed to get +35 while the bot had 66 points, but only listed itself as 60/63. Funny that everything ended up adding right at the end of the game. Almost as if nothing was random. At the end of the game, I had correct points to deserve that premature +35 I got when I had only had 34/63. 🙃 Leadership board doesn't accurately reflect wins and losses either. Like, I never won 6 games in a row?

Good game, not many ads here. They appear after every game before the score is shown, there's a way I don't have to deal with them, before the very last move of the game I just click new game With the robot it's extremely hard to beat, they don't have easy, it's like you're playing against a cheater! It annoys me that many yahtzees you just add to the box like 3 of a kind. There should be a box for extra yatzes, they are hard to get and it brings you down that you can't add them to your score.

I chose this version because it was simple and to the point (aside from the terrible ads that plague the market). Now it's overly flashy, has daily login bonuses, unskipable tutorials, takes too long to load (if it even does), a store for rerolls, and is still loaded with invasive ads. Thanks for ruining yet another game. I'm just gonna go buy some physical dice

Love this classic! I play it all the time! I think the people who complain about this version are just not very good at yahtzee and expect to win every time. The interface is classy, easy on the eyes, and clean. The other yahtzee apps are always too flashy, cluttered, and pop up ad filled. Definitely recommend this yatzy app over any other available.

I absolutely love the relaxing music in the background. It would be even better if you didn't hear the dice roll as loud. Maybe tone the dice noise down. You can definitely tell you're playing a rebot all every selection from a friend to online. It doesn't take almost 30 seconds to a minute to make a selection to play. Otherwise it's a fairly decent game to pass time.

The main issue is that I play the bot the most, and from what I can garner, each game almost predetermined. One game I just needed 1 four to win and get the bonus, and in two turns, that six rolls with 5 dice, I couldn't get 1 lousy 4. It happens once, okay, but after playing for a few months, it has happen a half a dozen times. The odds on that happening are slim to none. It's not random chance like it should be.

It is a fun game -- addictive even. But a few things could be improved. The stats it provides aren't enough for me, and I bet it's also not enough who play. Yahtzee lovers dig stats! For instance, instead of just current win/loss streak, maybe record for the last 10 games. Maybe instead of just showing the score of our best game, show our top 10 games. How about our average score? And it would be cool if we could interact with our opponents, either during or after. A friends list maybe.

STAY AWAY.. WARNING. Ads. Ads. Oh, and more ads. Some take 4 clicks to get past. Some make me have to restart the game to get past. And some take complete control of my phone; can't close it, can't minimize it, can't make or receive calls or texts, etc. HAVE TO REBOOT TO GET CONTROL OF MY PHONE BACK. Not even an option to buy an ad-free version. In the short time I played, the bot is unbeatable. Gets bonus and all major points every time. Gets yahtzee more than 50%. Flawed app, big time.

This is a fun, standard game. Play is very simple and intuitive. Ads are not long after each game (a few seconds, that's it). But be prepared for frustration online if you want a quick game. Some players will take the full minute on each roll (it's part of the typical rules of the game, but honestly drives me nuts when they, have no rolls left, keep selecting different dice, and an obvious/only one choice to make). How about a speed version, with like 15 seconds per roll. Otherwise, great game.

Love this game! I would give more stars but they're ads you can't 'x' out. They've gotten worse recently than before. Not sure if there was an update to cause this. Have to completely get out and open back up. Very frustrating and an inconvenience. Please either get rid of those ads or make it possible to 'x' out without having to close app and re-open.

Wth...went on the game today, and it is totally different. The setup. The matches. The look. Thought I would try it, and it is obvious "playing" against others online is just against the computer. Each "opponent" plays the same. Also, what is the point of buying/playing bonus spins? Just means you can keep spinning until you achieve your desired result. No skill involved. Liked it the old way. Not this updated way.

I tried 2 other dice games that either froze my phone or had 30 second ads too often. This one plays easily, and is fun to pick up anytime. I usually play on silent, but when I had the volume up the music was very soothing. UPDATE 9.5.19: I had to uninstall because they started running an ad for "Toon Blast", which froze the game completely. The ad wouldn't play and I couldn't move back or exit without quitting the game.

3/5/24 REVIEW UPDATE. Went from 5 stars down to 2 stars. Not sure what happened to this app but it keeps freezing up and in most cases, the screen goes completely black. Total drag because just 1 year ago, I had posted the review below. This has always been my favorite board game 🎲. I love this app! 3/19/23-Still love this game. However, I would pay a small fee to stop the ads.

Updated: This game has been ruined. I have the old version on a different phone. It's still working fine. But I can't get that version on my backup phone. The company left a note to fix this complaint with an update. The only update is on the version I love.👎 No way. Old review: Classic Yatzy. No frills, no fireworks. Perfect. You can play solo or against a challenger, I love it. Only problem is the ads. Too many. Too hard to get out of them and back to the game.
