W2P- Wait to play, after I've paid?
Grudunza
This would be a great title, with some interesting dice play based on increasingly difficult thresholds to meet, but the developer has decided to implement an egregiously bad pay model that prevents me from actually playing the game, even after I've already paid $2 into it. After playing a few levels, I was happy enough with the gameplay to gladly pay the $2 to remove the occasional ad breaks. Okay fine... I don't expect games to be free, and $2 seemed about right for a light dice game of this type, and comparable with other Reiner Knizia dice games, which I've enjoyed. Even $3-4 would be fine considering the quality of the presentation, which is very nice. But then, you discover that there is another wall in the game regarding "lives," of which you only have so many that you can lose from level failures before the game will make you wait before you can play it again (or pay another $1 each time to refill those lives, which can be depleted very quickly - I'm looking at you, Winter level 37). So now, because it would be absurd for this to end up being a $20+ game (I've already had to wait 10+ times for that level 37 to refill my lives), I refuse to pay anything more for this and thus must wait each time to play a game that I've already paid for. How absurd is it to create a game that inspires people to want to continue to play it, and then deny them that opportunity?! There are also offers for people to buy certain power up abilities... That's fine. I still won't do it, but I can appreciate that some might want to opt for that, and in that case, it is their choice and not going to prevent them from actually playing. If the lives thing would be tied to a particular level, so you could keep playing earlier levels to try to build yourself up, that would be acceptable. But that's not the case... You are simply shut out from playing, period. Change that model and this would likely be a 5 star app for me.
Screw this paywall game design

So sick of it. Make it a premium game. Fun for a few levels then, pay for "boosts" or lose lose lose.
Fun is ruined by IAP

Same developer strategy as other IAP games like Peggle Blast. Start the player off easy, get them addicted, then ramp up the difficulty a lot and hope they buy IAPs to avoid losing. I'm tired of this model. I will play this until I get sick of the game pretending like skill matters, while in reality power ups are the only real way to beat it.
Yahtzee with an RK spin.
Lord Gek
Leave it to RK to take some of the classic mechanics of Yahtzee but give them and all new spin and depth. I initially lamented that it was one of those freemium games (free to play but with annoying ads and limited lives unless your willing to wait several hours or pay to restore them), but now rejoice that they've added options to get rid of both the limited lives and ads for a one time fee.
Nice game...!!!

Fun game

This game is quite fun to play. The user interface and game design are are user friendly and quite catchy. The background music fits the game perfectly. The gameplay itself is quite fun. However, the instructions are too short and a bit vague. It should be explained in more detailed manner so that players are able to fully understand how to play the game to reach its maximum enjoyment in the game. Also, I believe the game should be included some special effects to make the game even more exciting.
Pretty fun!

This is a pretty fun little dice game. The artwork is nicely done, as is the interface. It does take a bit to get used to the gameplay, so I would not recommend for young children.
