Dice algorithym STILL rolls exactly what computer needs to block & hit. After 5 rolls I can tell I will lose the entire round no matter what you do. I just quit and start over to get to the algorithym that occasionaly playd an honest game. I've never in my life experienced a supposedly random roll hit double sixes three times in a row to bear off without a challenge. After so many losing games I have erased this cheating game. Code writers are full of it to say it's random.

Thanks for your feedback. We assure you the dice rolls are random, with no code to favor any player. Experiencing repeated patterns can seem odd but is part of randomness. Our AI is tough but fair. We value honesty and are always refining our game.

Dice are anything but random distribution. That's the only way the weak AI can compete. Movement is clunky, there are times it won't let you move, particularly near the end of a game when you roll a one and a larger number, it won't let you move the larger roll. Be prepared for the AI to roll exactly what's needed to get off the rail, typically as doubles. Your doubles come when bearing off your final piece. It's ok, needs work. Saw 6 sets of doubles in a row for AI, my 6 rolls were 5 and under

Needs an update. Though the graphics are good, moving the pieces has always been a little hinky. I think the game has been hacked by a few players. Needs an update and a security overhaul. Maybe a couple dedicated mods. OH, and simpply starting a game is a chore. Needs more players and needs to be more user friendly.

Hi Mike, We'd love you hear your suggestions in detail. please drop us an email at support@hardwoodgames.com
We do plan on making some updates, so your feedback is quite welcome on how we can improve both getting into a game, and moving pieces in a less "hinky" way. :)
