@Silencian: Statistically speaking, two times in a row means absolutely nothing. Come back when it happens 30 times in a row. At least. This game, with its open-ended scores, is just very luck-based. Not biased.

I don't see how making the CPU "reckless" affects anything, the game has so much luck it can get 3 free rolls in a row...

reckless comp diffculty is bs it got 3 500 points in a row via nothing on inital rolls that is not right and needs some modification mabey or im just the unluckest person on today

4 wins in a row... I he hits 10,200 and I'm at 9,700. 500 to win and I get 2 1's and lost. Failure... Getting this hard badge is just a giant pain in the ass.

wow, it took me 3 months to get that hard badge... it should really be "impossible" because it's mostly luck-based or takes a loooooooong time to be achieved

Having most of my game decided by luck is annoying. I bank about 300-400 each turn and hardly do a zilch. Then comes the AI, zilches more than 50% of the time, but the rest of the time gets a neat score anywhere from 500-1500. Totally annoying! What's the use of all my strategy now?

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...

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.

My current record against Realist is 359-245, and I do even better against the other AIs. Don't just get bad luck in a few games and assume it's rigged. It hasn't been uncommon for me to lose several games in a row, but if the AI was that artificially lucky, it's very unlikely I'd have that good of a record with that kind of sample size. Admittedly, I'm a better player than the computer, but this is still mostly a luck game. For everyone bitching about the lucky computer, there's someone else who wins and doesn't bother posting about it. I have a degree in math, and I'm considering getting a master's degree in statistics, and I just don't see any evidence of a luck discrepancy. If you play a few hundred games and don't come out with a winning record, you're probably just not playing as well as you could be.

Love this game and the bad losers who quit at the last minute. Poor bairns. Who else clicks 'bank' just as 'free roll' pops up, ah!?

I don't believe my eyes...I question my own sanity...
I just saw REALIST score 1200 pts. with four sixes, then he rolled again(!) and got a one. And then...he rolled AGAIN o.O (and got a zilch, hehehe)

I actually did not enjoy this game. At first it was fun, but very quickly it gets repetitive and old. I agree with those saying that there is no strategy involved whatsoever. It's pure luck, and even the "easy" computer still can get lucky, banking over 5000 points on me in the second round. As for playing it, I could write a computer code with my strategy in it and just let it run forever. I do the exact same thing for every game I play. 2.5/5 at most, due to achievements and originality. I wanted better though.

Okay, it's not RNG. You see, with RNG, the game wouldn't be RIGGED.
RNG would mean at least a 50/50 chance to win against reckless. I've played oh-so-many times (which was the goal of the dev) and I haven't won one time. These are facts. This game is bunk. 0/5 rating for BROKEN gameplay.

ok, so lets see... OH SWEET!!! 10800 points! beat that reckless!!! ok, this PI$$ES ME OFF!!! reckless roll 4 free rolls and got 4650 POINTS, WTF!!!!

My score 12000, reckless is at 9500. "Surely he cant win!" I said confidently. The game gives him 4000 points AND he decides for once in his life to bank it. I stared at my computer and all i saw was a big turd.
