The classic Parchís (Parcheesi) board game, with real 3D physics. Flick the dice with your finger and watch them bounce and roll across the board! PLAY YOUR WAY • Play with family and friends on one device, or solo against the computer • Any player can be controlled by the AI • Team mode: play in pairs MADE FOR SHARING A TABLET The board fills the whole screen, so everyone can sit comfortably around it and play together. EFFORTLESS MOVES Start dragging a pawn and a star marks where it will land. Let go and the pawn snaps into place. CLASSIC LOOK, MODERN FEEL A beautiful board inspired by the traditional Parchís design, fun effects that liven up every match, and simple menus that get you playing in seconds.

Great Game

Played this lots of times. The AI plays by the rules you choose in the settings. Several variations. I seem to win more than lose. The dice rolls seem random enough. Occasionally, I get three doubles sending a piece back, but it happens to the computer opponent as well. No evidence at all that the rolls favor the AI. In fact, it might place its pieces in danger spots more often than it should. When playing the computer, make the colors be at opposite corners. Try different rules to find the settings you like best. Overall, I’m glad to have this game.

While I see that this program has been built with the Unity platform there are a few annoying bugs to report. First, the first set of doubles only allows the face value to be used; there after doubles work correctly (probably some initialization problem). Second, at times the roll freezes and the only solution is to pause and re-enter hoping it will work again - to mixed results. At one point on re-entry the game enabled the AI to play the other two nests and the AI started blocking our play. Last, at times it will not allow the movement of a piece (that should be able to move) and force the movement of other pieces farther back - it isn’t at all clear why this would be. If you like pass and play between humans it has the capability to be fun but the bugs need resolved. I see this game has been out for three months so perhaps it is due for an update to address the newer versions of IOS that have come out in that time. Please make sure you are testing on an IPad Pro as that is more pervasive in the marketplace now.Thank you for your talent in making such a game!

New version spoils the game

My iPad just updated this game to the new version. This is not Parchis HD, but another version (by a different developer?). I dislike it, but it's still better than the other Parcheesi games in the App Store. The older game was very nice, very elegantly designed and with good options and game play. This version has different graphics, different dice rolls, different play options, and it's slow. I wish I could revert to the old version, but apparently that isn't possible. Some suggestions for Sr Quiles: restore automatic dice rolling for non-AI players, or make that an option; make an option to have the old player messages instead of annoying noises. If you restore them by option, you could English, Spanish, and whatever addition languages you might think necessary.I'm getting used to the new graphics, although I think the old plainer ones more esthetically pleasant. I'd rather be able to turn off the new sound effects, while keeping the dice roll and movement noises. And it is really tiresome to have to keep touching the screen to make the dice roll. The older version was better.Also, the correct name was "Parchis HD", not "Parchessi". IF you want the English spelling, it's Parcheesi, or Parchisi.

Awesome game design. I wish the die roll was truly random. It is impossible for it to be random, or I'm the unluckiest person alive. It's absolutely astounding how the bots get such "lucky" rolls at least 75% of the time to either take an opponent out or hit the safe spots. The only way to win is to control two cooperatively against two individual bots. Even playing this way I still lose 25% of the time, but at least it is fun. So I give it three stars for playing in this way. If I could only control one player I would only give one star.Game designers - please fix this. Make the rolls truly random.I submitted this review a couple of years ago and they still have not fixed it. They probably think it’s funny.

• New CPU difficulty setting: choose Easy, Normal or Hard. • New two-dice option: choose whether two dice adding up to 5 (e.g. 2 and 3) take a token out of the nest, or only a 5 does. • Fixed the indicator of the current player.
