Pros and cons of Yachats ( a 5 dice game) app for iPhone and iPad

Yachats ( a 5 dice game) app good for

We are really enjoying this version of this classic game. It is a pleasure to play with very clear graphics. Great for travel!
This is exactly what I want for a Yahtzee style game. A "clean" straight forward user interface - no talking pigs, videos for advice etc. I especially like seeing my entire score sheet on one page (no scrolling ).
I had to laugh at the description. The developer and a dozen other people know what ray-traced images are. The rest of us dont care. What does matter is that the developer has paid attention to the details, resulting in a really enjoyable "cup and 5 dice" game. This is an app one can play for hours without getting bored, and without irritating neighbors with whistles and boing sounds. Great job, Mr. Corcoran.
Great game... Im really enjoying it. Graphics are good, single player game play is quick and easy on the iphone. The 2-player mode is fun and easy to use.
I ponied up for the official Yahtzee Adventure iPhone game and felt like I had entered a house of mirrors and mazes. Thank God for Yachats. Somebody understands that the point of a game is to play it, not to be played by the game.this is a great implementation. My only wish is for an undo to compensate for my fat fingers but that is soooo minor in a great app like this!
Been spending lots of time in Dr offices waiting rooms lately. This is great 4 making the time fly. Got the people seated next 2 me playing. They love it. Well worth the $. Got mad @ it the 1st time I played it cuz it crashed, then I realized it hadnt crashed I had run the battery down playing it for hrs. Would luv 2 c a undo feature, easy 2 make a mistake. Thx

Some bad moments

You can barely see the dice and you cant play against the computer. The UI is minimal, a simple list. You get what you pay for.
I assumed Id be able to play against the computer, but theres no option for that. For that reason, its kind of boring.
