I understand that adds are necessary to pay the bills but this is ridiculous. Double add when starting a match, double add somewhere mid-match, double add at the end of a match. O, I forgot, another double add when you launch the app before even clicking a single thing. Just asinine. I spend more time watching adds than playing matches.

the game is simple enough with minimal ads. Which is good. However, the numbers on the dice are in favor of the CPU opponent 90% of the time. There have been plenty of times when the computer will box in my pieces on its side of the board. Rendering me unable to advance my pieces. The player (You) gets bad dice tosses. While the CPU gets good dice tosses.

Hello, thank you for your feedback! The dice rolls in our app are governed by an RNG, ensuring fairness. It's common to perceive certain patterns during gameplay, but this is a characteristic of randomness. Occasional patterns that appear deliberate are actually expected within the realm of statistical probabilities.

The dice rolling clearly favors the computer. The majority of checker hitting opportunities are in favor of the computer. When you hit the computer's checker it almost always gets back into play on the first roll. The computer has less "no available moves" than I get. And it's like this EVERY game. I don't understand why computer game programmers have to rig it for the computer's favor. It sure doesn't make for a happy customer. Make the dice rolling truly random and unbiased.

Hello, thank you for the feedback! We understand your concerns. The dice rolls in our app are always determined by an RNG. It's natural to notice certain patterns during gameplay; however, the nature of randomness means that sometimes sequences or patterns that seem non-random can emerge, but they are just part of the statistical probability.
