Can't create a 4 person multiplayer game. No info anywhere to explain why. It's very confusing to use multiplayer. Desperately needs QA/UX. Update: After reading forums I see that we need to buy the game to enable the 'custom' game mode, but even that is unclear what needs to be purchased from the in-game store. The store doesn't say what you get for various purchases. I'm trying to find a way to contact their customer service. Even paying for the game is hard, they make it very confusing.

The game has become unplayable after updates. The several server upgrades have been worthless, claiming to fix bugs, but they end up causing more issues. The game is plagued with network issues due to which i have lost my player stats. The rejoin glitch and the so-called randomness of the dice has been a total negative experience. Sometimes the online games reset their state after progressing through it for 20ish minutes. Very frustrated with the recent app experience. I don't enjoy it anymore.

The game plays and functions great. But you must make an account to play. And it seems like every time I launch the app, I am logged out and have to remember my password to log back in. It doesn't remember you on your device. You can't log in with a fingerprint. It drives me nuts. Bad enough that it motivated me enough to write this review on it.
