Yatzy Ultimate

I love the game, been playing for years. It’s therapeutic and now with recent update and changes…. I was playing but mine and others who used play and wait had “pre-update” games in play when they finished they just faded but stayed in Que and built up. I just figured you’d fix it since affecting so many. I was afraid to “sign out” and lose YEARS of climbing the ranks. Been there done that with UltimateYahtzee and still grief losing my progress. I did a couple support reports as did others and now the “get the new version green update is blocking playing 🤬

This game is great fun, and playing against people all over the world provides great challenges. There are a few issues I have with the latest version: 1. The AI for some reason doesn’t choose straights when they are rolled. I only play on the “hard” setting during training games. So I can’t really train effectively when I can count on that mistake being made. 2. The CPU utilization on my iPhone 13 Pro with latest iOS as of this writing is very high (>60% according to my monitoring app) whenever the app is open or running in the background. My phone always gets warm, and my battery drains quickly. This is the only app on my phone that runs at that level constantly. 3. The online games appear to be matching me with what seems like AI “players.” The tip off is that their pacing is all the same, they are all highly predictable, and they all have simple names that most of us couldn’t get when we choose our own user names. I wonder if the number of available players shown on the Home Screen is anywhere close to accurate. 4. Like others, I have reason to question the random number algorithm for rolling the dice. The biggest tip off for me is that rolling a yatzy seems much more likely in online games than bet games.

The chat feature is good except for the fact that it isn’t offered in the play and wait games. These are the friends I want to chat with the most but the app won’t allow it. Love the app otherwise and use it everyday
