Can’t recover account

I’ve been a loyal player of YAHTZEE with buddies for over 10 years. My account was very built up. I had over 100 bonus rolls and many other goodies. I accidentally deleted the app from the home screen of my iPhone. I created a new account and went into Support to recover my old account. They said I needed my user ID and password. There was no option to type in lost login information. As we all know, passwords and logins get lost, especially ones belonging to the games that you have been playing for so very long. I am crushed that Scopely offers no other options to recover your account. So disheartening. I have to start over again. I lost everything. My games, family, buddies etc. Well since this review I finally reached customer support and Jake did a fantastic job getting my account restored and getting me able to log back in. The big problem is it is very hard to reach a live agent because a lot of times they say pick a category you’re having having problems with, but it doesn’t have a choice for what you’re experiencing. So I just kept tapping and tapping, and then everything got worked out. So I will continue this amazing game and enjoying all the varieties of activities this app offers.

Game Just Tries To Take Your Money

With this app, you have two options for gameplay. You can play one turn at a time with strangers, which can be a very time-consuming endeavor. If you want to play a game by yourself (against the computer) you have the second option of engaging in the adventure modes. This is the typical profitable app model that uses timer countdown limits (e.g. once you play one game, you must wait three hours until you can play again) that encourage the user to utilize in-app purchases to buy local currencies. While I’m not the biggest fan of this model, I understand that it’s very prevalent and I’ve become accustomed to being patient and looking forward to it. What is the biggest disappointment is that many of the games are clearly fixed (in order to gain any significant advantage you would likely need to utilize further in-app purchases). I am obtaining my master’s degree in statistics and the probability of some of these outcomes happening repeatedly and as constantly as they do is so remote that it has just become so discouraging. If you’re looking to play Yahtzee, don’t get this app. The design is nice and the gameplay is superb, but unless you’re looking for an app that you mindlessly check on every few hours or if you don’t mind spending your actual money on this game, then go ahead and try it. I had been really underwhelmed with the game that I had deleted it. After having recently re-downloaded it, I will soon be deleting it again.

This is my second review. I love the game because it is the closest one to the real thing. Only have a few issues. I’ve been playing for a long time and I usually play against many players. First peeve, I don’t like having to start the league play over from the beginning! Some people play for fun, but also like to advance also! Why don’t you let us add on to our league points so we can eventually move up? I have come close many times, but I also have a life, as I’m sure others do too! Second peeve, you offer free family games, yet sometimes I go there and they aren’t free, I either have to use a few bonus rolls or something else, and those bonus rolls are hard to come by! I know, they seem petty, but to a hardcore player who loves the game, sometimes all the extra stuff does get in the way! But I will keep playing, because the game is fun and the players are too! If you could just tweak the game a little, I think it would be better!Still absolutely LOVE Yahtzee but absolutely HATE the new format! I am now playing the same person 12 times because so hard to find players I am playing and new players! Don’t understand why you just can’t have a simple format that is easy to understand without all the bells and whistles…it’s a simple game, leave it at that!

I’ve been playing this game for about a week to check it out and play with some of my friends to pass time. Overall I thought it was great the first few days! The different types of games you can play and the many tasks/challenges assigned for you keep you busy and entertained. Unfortunately I’ve been noticing some patterns that have made me feel frustrated because I believe that sometimes the dice rolls aren’t fully RNG. I say this because sometimes the odds work against you A LOT during tournaments, to a point where I just stopped playing them because I just know I’m going to lose. The probability of losing every single tournament, and never getting certain slots filled is way more than 50%, which is strange because it’s a dice game that centers around random rolls. Why is it that I have to roll extra dice the most in tournaments, and even then the extra rolls never benefit me? It’s almost like the dice purposefully roll on the opposite number you’re needing to earn points. I believe that this is a method used to encourage people to get more rolls with actual money, which is very predatory. When playing with “buddies” the chances seem very fair, and I never suspect the dice to be rigged. But when you start going into the actual game modes that win you the most rewards, those are the games that you’re expected to lose in.
