Yatzy Multiplayer Reviews

Bots are impossible to beat. Players on the top of the leaderboard have the ability to disconnect you from the game. Just avoid them. I only get disconnected when playing certain players and it is too consistent to be a coincidence. The dice are loaded for high scoring games, which can be fun, but I recently played a game with 6 yatzees (well, 2 yatzees and four 5 of a kind) A bit excessive if you ask me.

Description is misleading—I downloaded this specifically to invite members of my family for a 4 person game. Once we all downloaded it, we couldn’t play together. This is fraudulent on the developers part since they misrepresent their app, get more downloads, and make money off ad revenue from it. Change the description or actually provide what you say you do.

Fairly decent game, but there's a serious bug in YatzyMultiplayer : YatzyMultiplayer will not recognize a small or large straight. And the developers do not have the respect or decency for users to reply to messages asking for this to be fixed. So that means this game is worthless. I would look else where if you're looking for a good Yahtzy game. The developers of this that don't care enough about users to keep or earn their business. Basically they don't want your business or they would be replying to customers to let them know what's going on.

....please revert to previous version. This one keeps crashing and when throwing the dice it is too fussy and they are too small at bottom of screen relative to the giant scorecard. Plus when you invite a friend it often doesn’t work whereas prior to update it worked perfectly and was the best Yahtzee game on the market.

This is a good implementation of online multiplayer Yahtzee. The additional scoring options balance the game and make it so you’re not necessarily out of it once your opponent scores a Yahtzee, or multiple Yahtzees. This lessens the number of “quitters” you get when playing online. Very well done and fun.

HOWEVER, the advertisement delivery system is broken. The game constantly stalls when a new advertisement needs to load. While the game is stalled waiting for an ad to load, you may hit the “roll” button twice. Once the ad is finished loading, all of those clicks are stored and then happen at the same time. It sometimes gets so bad that it will disconnect you or your opponent while the game is waiting for a new ad. This happens both on cellular and stable WiFi connections. It is mind-numbingly frustrating. Please note, this is not for the ads you view between games, but rather the ads that appear at the bottom of the screen during gameplay.

I understand the necessity of the ads in a free game and am willing to look at as many ads is needed for the developer to support the game, however, the ads should not interfere with gameplay like this. If there were ever the need for a paid “ad free” version of a game, this would be it, at least until they can fix their ad delivery system.

Its so close to being a good online version for playing with friends.
But.... you auto lose if you exit YatzyMultiplayer and attempt to txt your friend.
It should not have a time limit.
It just now started giving me an error when I try to invite a friend to play "room is full". What does that mean?

This has been the only Yahtzee game that is close to the original that I could find and play with my girlfriend online. The main issue I have is the game disconnects often which is very frustrating.

I’ve tried many Yahtzee games and have come to keep this one as I like the format better than the others they have in YatzyMultiplayer Store. However the glitches are horrendous.
If I play 5 games, 3 of them will stop and say I was disconnected even though my wi-fi is fine.
YatzyMultiplayer closes by itself in the middle of the game.
Many times it takes so long to be able to press the score I’m going for, yet with not being able to press anything the timer keeps going and ends the game saying I ran out of time.
Also the game is rigged. If I get 4 of the same numbers the one I’m left trying to roll is always, always then a 1.
Please work out these issues. I can only rate YatzyMultiplayer 2 stars as these issues are to major to let go.

Since the game has been an overhaul to a new version I can’t play it. It either crashes or won’t let me play because the start button is gray. I’ve been playing it for a log time. Pretty much daily so I’m disappointed. If the game doesn’t get fixed I’ll have to find another Yahtzee game. Update: Finally got the game to load and play but after 2 -3 rolls it crashes every time and needs restarting. The past version was much better. I don’t like that they eliminated 1 and 2 pair.

This could be a excellent game, if not for a few nagging annoyances.

Good Stuff:
1) stable and solid
2) online games with strangers works well
3) fast & responsive
4) minimal ads

Annoyances:
1) dice are frustratingly *not* random… play a 4-person online game and watch all 4 players throw basically the same results
2) trying to play online with a “friend” (including another device in the same room) is clumsy, awkward, and crash-prone… this needs a simpler “LAN” mode
3) creating profile accounts is maddenly difficult… and this is a prerequisite to #2

I’ve had this game a long time and I really like it because I don’t have to play against others, it’s free and I can play offline.
Now since the latest update I just get a blank grey screen.
Please fix this problem. I don’t want to search for another Yahtzee game.

This game is a lot of fun, especially because I can play against a computer “person”. I don’t want to play online with real people. I’m wondering what happened to the one pair and two pair choices.

The new update is very busy. The dice rolls on the score sheet and goes so fast it makes me ill. I played this game several times everyday but now I can’t. Will be looking for a different Yacht dice game.

Updated to 4 stars: They were very quick to put a fix in for the dice rolling on score pad. I wish there was a way to slow the dice roll in place. Goes too fast.

A year ago it said that it was in the works, it would be a huge benefit for you to implement ASAP

Like playing this format. I think adding a rematch possibility would increase the fun. Lot of quitters here. This would give them reason to stay! Revenge. For some reason, 90 percent of the time, I’m the second roller. Seems odd. Still good job.

This is an enjoyable game, but once the game ends win or loose a banner pops up to say who won. The banner covers the scoring. When you click OK it leaves the game (to an ad) and you cannot review the scoring. That would be a nice improvement to click done.

I want to thank the developers for listening to their players. The previous couple of updates really ruined the game and now since this last one, it’s been fun to play again!

Now, please don’t change anything. :)

It will not open with the latest iPhone update. Please fix and I will change my rating to 5 stars. Love playing.

Contacted developer and within a week and a half it was fixed. WTG

I notice you can play 4 people but online only allows 2? Or is there a way to change it? Thank you it’s a very fun game

I've always loved Yahtzee and this version is also fun and relaxing except it's a bit difficult to get the Yatzy. I also thought I'd be able to sync my account on all devices. But still I love the game and graphics.
