Parcheesi by Quiles App Reviews

Great game I remembered from my youth-it taught me rules and counting (or basic math in general). I had forgotten the rules and although the game itself remembers them, they dont give a list for you to follow. I still love it though and when can I play with friends?

Hours of fun...

Best parchisi game I have found so far but adding some options would make it more strategic and less based on luck: 1. Add pass button so player can choose to only use one of dice thrown 2. If dice total 5 then option to get out of base available 3. Dont make it mandatory to leave base when 5 or total of 5 thrown (allow player to use 5 on another piece even if there are still pieces in base) 4. Undo button to reverse mistakes

Plays like. The classic board game parcheesi if you updated and set the rules right. Spent many hours playing. Wish there were more classic board games out there. One thing I wish is that it kept track of wins and losses.....4/8. Found a bug ... I play doubles where I control blue and green had all green pieces in but was going no where with blue. I had 2 pieces out with blue(one on starting spot.) Rolled double 5s with green and had thee blues sitting on start. Basically I had 3 pieces on one spot. Not 100% sure if I killed an opponent ( on my starting spot)at that time. But I think I did.

Its a nice game but the Apps AI appears to roll exactly the moves it needs to win a game! Every time the AI has won the game Ive had all my pips out on the game board and miraculously the dice roll doubles three times in a row the the AI just happens to roll the moves to knock more of my pips off the board. Just now I lost the game because it somehow managed to roll 11 4 times in a row and was the perfect move to get its last pip into the home before I could! Seems to coincidental for my taste!

(Otherwise)Well designed app. Edit: Im not playing the game until the dev includes an undo. It can be quite unenjoyable when your intended move is misinterpreted and the game is blown. Happens too often with my apparently fat fingers :((

Would like more options like Hoyle 2005 board games pc version. Option to pass on one of dice, combination of both dice totaling 5 lets you move a chip from home. Option to not move a chip from home to play field. Sometimes the dice get stuck, tilted on eachother, freezes the game, have to save, exit, then start saved game to continue. Add the options for me to give 5 star, other than that, awesome app

Buggy as heck. Very inconsistent. Cannot delete a saved game. "Rules" take you to the Wiki page - really?? I dont need the history of Parchisi, I need to know by what whacked-out rules this games adheres. Contact app support/author is in another language. What a waste of money. Too bad. Graphics are nice but this thing was not ready for release and has never been updated. Authors should be ashamed of this mess.

Awesome game design. I wish the die roll was truly random. It is impossible for it to be random, or Im the unluckiest person alive. Its 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 like this game however it freezes and drops out and you find yourself back on the iPad home screen. When you go back to the game you can click on continue and it will take you back to where you were but the dice will not be the same. I reported this issue and got no response. Not happy:(

Theyve missed a couple key rules of the game: - If you have a combination of dice = 5, you should be able to come out--not only when you have one of the two dice = 5. - When you have all pieces out, when you roll doubles, you get the values of both the top and bottom of the dice--the sum of which is always 14. - When a piece is on the "safe" spots, I understand the rules to not allow sharing of the spot by two pieces from different players (Ill have to read the rules expressly to confirm that). Fix these little quirks and it id a decent app.

Look up

I dont like this version much. Theres options that exist in classic game that arent in this game! big ones! Like the option to pass!

Great game. Fun to play with family. The only thing is that when I get doubles it makes me moves the barriers. The CPU is a cheater it gives itself lots of doubles. Other than that the game is lots of fun.

Im sure this app is better used by groups, but as soon as you put a computer opponent in, it automatically rolls the dice to send your pawn home. Ive seen the computer roll the dice to send 3 computer pawns all the way around and home to win the game in the time it took me to get 1 pawn 2 spaces... I just watched the computer pull one of my pawns OUT of the center. Having so many options is great, but you have to play it against how the app was programmed to knock you home. Specifically, the most successful method Ive found is to get all your pawns out and around (on safe spots) as quickly as you can WITHOUT having them touch the home stretch, but just line them up.. and when theyre all there, send them all home. If you touch the home line, it triggers annihilation mode, where the computer WILL weigh the dice to knock you home... and if you leave it an opening to do that, it will do it even if youre one spot away from the home line on your last pawn and it has 3 pawns left to get around the board -- and you bet that the computer will win that round. BIASED! This game needs to be re-programmed so the dice are rolled with actual chance / probability factors of those combinations. If you buy this, make sure youre up for frustration at how ridiculously programmed it is!

Love it

So cool! Love this app.

Hello or hey haha Anyway i just want you to update parchis Hd for ipad and make it with 6pawns each and theres some bugs to fix like when you get 6 three times you should die but some times it dosnt and thats anonying and one thing give us the choice when we play team when i finish i dont count 10 for my friend or temmate but just keep it a choice pleas and thank you reply to me

Sometimes the number you roll does not correspond with the number spaces your piece will move.

Fun way to pass time. Frustrating at times that the computer picks the exact number to send me home-time after time & immediately throws a five to get out when I send it home. Still,its enough fun to keep.
