P.S.
Does anybody else feel like Reckless should be "Hard" and Realist should be "Easy"? The Reckless AI either zilch or score by the thousands...

Sometimes RNG grants AI amazing scores. The idea behind the game is nice (a bit too close to gambling maybe...) but the overall result is "meh".

Hmph. At least the easy badge is indeed easy to get - thank the stars - and not hinged on actually winning against mechanics seemingly rigged to hell and back. Which I'm not entirely clear on why anyone would ever feel the slightest bit enticed to even try for, if what's described in the top comments really is the first experience this web-toy gives to most people... ¬_¬

lol i give up this game is retarded 1/5. 100% luck based.
I had 7500 and the CPU on medium had 5200.
Then i got like 10 time in a row "Single Fives" and since i hadn't 300 to bank it just zilch'd , on the opposite side CPU had 3 times in a row 1500 Free row..... wtf...

This is a great time waster and I play this game often on my phone with Kongregate's mobile app. I just wish the badges would roll over from the mobile versions.

One of the things I love about this game is how, on its surface, it really is just a game of chance. But the more you play, you more you realize that there is deep strategy.

The game is also buggy, you can disable the CPU sometimes by trying to play during its turn. You can fix it by unselecting all the dice and threatening to quit. The badge counter is a mess too, saying I have 91 awards when I actually have 102, and 2 more of my awards disappeared! When reloading the page my counter went down to 79.

In order to maximise the expected value of points, throw 5 dices only up to a score of 2925 and 4 dices only up to 912. If your score is higher you will probably loose more than you win.

What's that? You have a nice healthy 3000 pt lead? No matter, I'll just hand the CPU 2 "three-pair"s and then 4 1s. Don't worry, I'll give you a 5 and then nothing on the next round.

The first two badges only registered for me against the Reckless (easy) CPU. I tried both pvp and medium beforehand, nada. Thumbs up to help BOTD hunters

@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.
