Senet (AG)

A lot of the game’s functionality has been removed and the ads also cause the game to essentially freeze forcing a restart of the app. I just played a game and after the game an ad automatically appeared. After the ad ran, the screen was stuck on the ad with no way to X out of the ad. This was a fun app but it seems like it’s now time to download a different version of Senet app.

I happily paid for the game. I happily played the game for a few weeks, then it started showing ads. I realise developers have to eat, but introducing ads into a paid game is bad form.

(UPDATED rating to 5 stars :) bcus the “random player” dice roll is somehow no longer giving insanely unfair rolls to my opponent such as 55544113! Etc these unfair rolls lasted every day all day ever since I downloaded this app like over a week ago)To the dev.. please play Senet against “random player” and see what happens… do the same for UR too before saying it’s random. I’ve played the game many times in real life and these stick rolls aren’t realistic at all. Getting 4 4’s and 2 5’s in a row multiple times in the game is not fair especially when I just get 2’s 3’s, and the occasional two 1’s in a row which is always followed by a 2 after lol. Senet and the game of UR are really fun & I love the different board choices! I do wish it wouldn’t take as long to reach a new level though making it extremely hard to get new boards since you hardly get any XP after each game. CON #1: the “random player” games where you’re supposedly playing against another human is rigged for both Senet & Ur. I have played this app enough times to even be able predict what the “other players” next moves are on both “random player” and while playing the bot. It would be nice if the dev switched up the playing pattern of the bot so that each game isn’t so predictable. When playing Senet w/ a “random player”, I have seen them roll Three 5’s, one 4, and three 1’s all on the same turn! This is not random! It happens multiple times throughout the game. If I have their pawn blocked by 4 of my, best believe they’ll “coincidentally” roll a 5 on the first try once they need to move that piece..then to make it worse they roll multiple 4’s after then finally their turn is over. The “random player” constantly wins even if I only have 1 pawn on the board and they have 5. I never win against random player even though I’m able to predict their next moves spot on! “Random player” always plays the same and the bot plays the same but both different from one another. I win on the bot game (the bot that we choose to play against) often enough but the dice on the bot games are fixed too with highly highly unlikely roll sequences. Mind you, as they’re rolling multiple 5’s 4’s and 1’s, I only roll 2’s and sometimes 1’s. There’s plenty games I don’t roll a 5 but there’s never a game that the other player doesn’t rolls a 5. I’ve even set the dice to “normalize” but still the same. CON #2: It was obvious before I even downloaded the game though that we wouldn’t actually be playing against real people be

Fun game computer rolls rigged to win for sure.

Before I put money into the game I was doing fairly well… once I put money and I have not won a single game and I think that’s a little odd.

Not random

If you land on a space and switch your piece out with your opponent pharaoh, they will immediately roll the same number of spaces to switch their piece back. Also, if you’re ahead near the end of the board, they will magically roll 5’s and 4’s to catch up while you roll every number but the one you need. I’ve been in this scenario a handful of times already where I had one piece about to win, and the pharaoh had 2 pieces way back near the beginning of the board—and then, what a surprise, they caught up, and the game forced me into the water hazard (I couldn’t skip my turn because it obviously wanted me to lose), and the pharaoh won. It’s absolutely rigged, which is a shame, because Senet is so much fun to play. I hope the developers make the opponent’s moves more arbitrary and not so obviously attuned to them winning against all odds.

The computer got 5 six times in a row I can’t win once and when it finds out I’m probably gonna beat teh bot I gave me ones 5 times in the row and when I needed one more one it gave me a five

The algorithm alone is enough of a reason to never play this again. It cannot be statistically correct when I can continuously predict what the computer will do. The designer of thus game has already said my claims are false but anyone who plays this with more than 100 IQ can call that bull.

Impossible to win. 2 stars bc the graphics and sounds are great.
