Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Can play straight through a game quickly! Not much waiting. Like the different levels that build in points quickly. Game does freeze sometimes. But we think it's due to our wifi! Thanks for the fun.
We love this game , but like so many others we noticed our game freezing , crashing , & in completely insane frustration would LOSE MY GAME DUE TO THESE GLITCHES !!!! However one day we decided to try our game without using our wifi & using only the cellular data plan instead … Well THAT WAS THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE FOR ME !!! NO MORE GLITCH GAME PLAY!!! So we had to share this bit of info with the world , so happy to be playing again.
We love Yahtzee it is fun Sincerely Beatrice Rhoads.
It's always good to have some app to be amused when you are alone or waiting on the line.
Overall a good app, the shaker freezes once in a while and you get dropped every now and then.
Love the game but for several months now Im not able to buy more $$$ to play bet. The quote says already paid for- will be credited automatically. That has not happened yet for several months. The amount was the maximum. Also, we tried again for $20 which went through to our bank yet the transaction did not register on Yahtzee. Please resolve this issue.
Lots of fun, but doesn't let you keep your name unless you buy the full version after logout.
We play this game a lot and like it for playing with others around us. But Ive also had some issues with playing online. For instance today we won the game but it said we lost and deducted our coins. Pretty irritating.
The game itself is well designed and fun to play but often has connection issues. It will take up most of the wifi bandwidth and often the game will freeze up.
The game is fun and has good features but freezes if a double yatzy is rolled.
Poor programming. Inconsistent. Streaky.
We just tried to play again…after 1st round opponent got 17 pts. We get 50 then games end saying we lost!! Worst game ever!! The game sits there and keeps shaking forever without ever dropping the die, we can sit there and watch it or leave and lose our points. Other times after the opposition plays their points follow to our score card forcing us to lose a turn and at the end of game we lose because of time. Please fix these issues and others that ppl share with you! Froze again today, clock kept running, clearly ahead and we lost! Getting old.
More than half of the time played ends up in us losing connection and then losing the game. Has nothing to do with our internet connection since we have unlimited data.
Love the game but frequently breakdowns, connection interferes the game.
No issues, love it, playing it for years.
Lots of fun and addictive way to spend the time. It's great. LOOOOVE IT.
Lots of fun and time passer. Quick and easy.
The game is a challenge, especially when you limit what you allow yourself to lose in any one session…. It is hard to walk away from it! You honestly develop a sixth sense about your chances on each roll…. And knowing what the dice are telling you.
Update: connection issues make it almost unusable. We'll have perfect cell and wifi reception and games constantly freeze with the dice spinning, then you lose from a time out. Very frustrating. Fun game otherwise. Figure out the internal connection issues and we'll download it again. We like the game play but have run into a few glitches. If you roll a second Yahtzee the game freezes up and forces a loss regardless of score. We have also had connectivity issues with the game server despite having full cell service and wifi available.
We love this game ! It is a great time killer and addictive really! Customer service is A++ if you ever have an issue:) You won't be sorry if you download this, it's one of the best out there.
Excellent! Play it every chance we get. One of our go to games.
Best free game App! Truly free.
If you grew up playing Yahtzy you will love this game. Some titles of things for example a full house are called 3 + 2 in this game, etc. But you quickly catch on. You play by yourself or with others. There are also other types of Yatzy then our childhood game.
We luv this game. We play this game every chance we get. We are so glad glad we down loaded it.
Our internet is fine, yet we continue to get kicked from games because the timer runs out. The wifi symbol shows little connection in the game but our wifi symbol is full on our phones homescreen and is working fine elsewhere. Good game, but that's frustrating.
As of October 12th, the game is now defective. It stops working, freezes, and you lose the game. Don't play it until they fix it. It has frozen for us the last 3 out of 4 times. In hundreds of previous games, it never did that. Something changed, and the game is now broken.
Many times very slow to connect. Also dice will just continue to spin until time runs out. Wi-if is strong, no issues with streaming etc.; it has to be on their end or software issue.
We love Yahtzee but after the most recent update we had to forfeit two games due to connectivity issues costing us between 1 to 2 million chips. Your programmers need to get your act together and fix this ASAP.
You guys need to FIX the glitches in this game!!!! Dice roll uncontrollably, time runs out, player looses points. Happens repeatedly. You need to refund us 6,000 points. Otherwise, when game is correctly running a fun game.
-It is very like the actual dice game. The medium level will give you that "magic role" you need every once in awhile but can also give you lower scores than you ever remember getting with dice. This level is so diverse we haven't played a more difficult level yet. -This game is perfect for those of us who have no one with whom to play this game.
Love it; great for passing time for a few minutes, or a few hours.
Great game other than the stupid ads all the time.
Horrible App! Obviously programed to make you win a little, then lose a lot. No point in playing unless you want to spend big money on coins.
It's one of our two most favorite of all games we play.
Great during church (but turn your sound off).
Our one criticism is you cannot pick up the game after the phone goes to sleep. If you can't finish the game in one sitting, it can't be completed. Other than that it works very well.
No pop up ads make this a truly enjoyable game. Dice seem to act as you were rolling. Challenging from first to last roll.
Had this game for awhile now, it's okay if you don't mind losing MILLIONS to connection glitches, and other odd glitches like the red starting first and game can't be played, if your red, you lose automatically. We have lost on average 8 to 14 million a week due to their glitches. ( yes, our internet connection is fine and we have full bars, it's your end Yahtzee!).
The randomness of the dice is questionable. They want you to buy chips. Terrible version.
This is our favorite game to play, but every time there is an update, the game crashes for weeks. We can't play it all all right now! If we delete the app we lose all our points and our standing. Please fix the constant crashing of this game.
You need to be online to play anything but training mode. No thanks. Deleting.
We love Yahtzee. Would really be happy to see these guys adopt more board games since they did a great job here. Thumbs up.
No complaints here! Always a great game.
Great app! Addictive, easy, and keeps ya coming back. Fun w/ or w/o other players.
Started playing chess online but it was too boring, so we switched to Yatzy. This seems to be by far the best Yatzy version out there. Would recommend it gladly.
Great game play when we do not get out in game play and it takes our coins and there is a glitch in online mode and it tells us 2nd place when we have the high score, example just got second with 238 – 214 and takes our coins. Happening more and more and has cost us almost all our coins.
The player left the game and ended win the game. Really.
Very additive. Fun to play. Loved the game.
It truly is addictive; at least that's our opinion. ;) we really only utilize the training button, as we prefer to play against the computer, but even so, we have no complaints. :) Hopefully you will enjoy this game as much as we.
Rolls seem random and the online play is fun. Occasional issues if your network connection isn't solid. Fun game.
