Frustrating AI – Catan HD Review

Start with the dice rolls. Over time, the dice roll distribution looks like a fair, normal bell curve, as one would hope. But it’s the dice rolls within a specific game that look suspicious. On medium difficulty and above, the AI always seems to get the exact roll it needs at the precise time it needs it. Next, what happened to the free resource? It used to be the case that if you went 5 consecutive rolls, without getting a resource, you got a free resource of your choice. Since the latest update, however, that feature seems to have disappeared. I recently went through several stretches of 5+ rolls with no resource and the freebie never came up.
