i think that this game is like 98% luck becase all of the dice the comp gives u is random and it doesnt mater about what u chose cuase youll still get a random number of asorted dice great game 5/5

Realist CPU apparently thinks it's realistic to roll its sixth and final die after already scoring 1100 points with the other five. Several times in a row. Oh, how about that, more than 6000 points in one hand against massive odds. Yes, the thing any realist player would do.

Did you guys know that there is a game already made with the SAME exact rules...called Farkle. Look it up, it's the same rules, same everything. You kinda based this off of Farkle didnt you? or you just changed the name...anyways, this game is basically Farkle with a different name. Same rules and all. Just saying...

The issue with games like this:
1) It is easy to lose even if you make the best possible choices.
2) It is easy to win even if you make the worst possible choices.
3) As a result, you feel there is little you can do to change the outcome as the reward of winning is not associated with any kind of strategy.

I have a feeling that the hard computer has "luck" on its side (as in...pretty much loaded dice) 9000 to 4500 in my favor. He rolled 4 1500's in a row and won. Next game, 7000 to 3000 in my favor and he rolled 6 ones and won.

There is almost certainly more skill than luck required for this game. Your choices concerning the highest scoring yet lowest number dice combinations are key to this game. All you need to do is think carefully about which dice to choose, and not just click every opportunity that comes up. Forgive me for stating the obvious but it is quite clear that some people need to think about some basic probability theorems.

No skill required all about luck. The computer cheats big time always getting ridiculous ammounts and almost always tarting while you're doomed to get friggin zilches on 5 dices quite often. PLayed this game in real life, it's called patate chaude and I've NEVER been so unlucky as this. Almost impossible to do zilch free games, the computer almost makes sure of that. I wanted to give this game a rating of 3.5/5 but I'm so sick and tired of all the ridiculous zilches and computer cheating that I'm lowering it to a 1/5.

He only gets 50 points for taking one of the 5's, you should look more closely. Also, you can do the same thing, just click the 5 you want.

Nobody in their right mind should try for the 100 awards until they make it an 'impossible' badge... you will be pasted to your screen FOREVER

So I got one scoring dice first roll, then ziltched next roll for 2 turns in a row, while the comp got over 5000 points per turn for 3 turns in a row. I can see why people think it cheats.
BUT, it doesn't, so get over it people.

Why is the easy computer so much luckier than I am?!!! I've lost 9 games in a row by more than 5k points each time....

For those wondering what your chances of success are with a given number of dice, I crunched some numbers:

Holy mackarel...I got through a round without a single zilch! *recants previous statement, stipulation about zilches being unavavoidable*

The game cheats. No, this isn't a disclaimer, but the game involves no luck whatsoever and it never plays fair. I get zilches no matter what I try to do. When the computer makes a stupid move, it has a high chance of success (last die gets a 5 or 1 miraculously) and yet when I try the same thing, it zilches me every freaking time!

I love how this game is about taking chances but the game always puishes you brutally for doing it and constantly rewards the computer player for taking chances.

sometimes when i'm playing my bank button goes away and all i can do is keep rolling and zilching before i can move on or do anything else...and another thing..how come the comp can take only some of the points...how do i do that???

What the f***ing game is this i never loose at a hard game but can't win an easy one.
There is something wrong. The easy one beats me with THREE rolls in TWO turns!!?

At first I thought this game really enjoyable, and I still do somewhat...but when going for the hard badge, it becomes pure frustration. Going for long runs of zilch-free wins is one of the most daunting tasks I've ever had to endure, purely because you have no control over it! When you get single five --> zilch while at 9000 pts and you have to quit the game, it stops being fun.
