Ruined/security risk?   I have been waiting for the update to fix the cheating. There are those that do not know how to play that won't play unless they go first or quit if you play 4-1 first. I can live with that.
There are those that use programs to skip turns, gain points even if they lose, extend their timer limitations and in general cheat by interfering with the program. I can't deal with that. The game is more annoying now than fun.
What is the developers response? Nothing!! Why would you allow childish fragile egos ruin your work???
The solutions are simple enough. Remove the scoring. Remove the ability to change your name ( this way we can avoid these idiots). Give a shorter time limit (so they can't make
You wait 5 mins) patch your security. I really don't feel comfortable when someone can disconnect me from the game. Sadly this game is completely ruined. I would not recommend.

It's okay...   First I'd like to say something to the people who are saying they want thier money back because they think that there is no custom chat and that the developers lied to get a quick buck. There is custom chat!All you have to do is play a network game. (off the same wifi.) But I agree, it was a little misleading of the developers to say it has custom chat, when it really only has it in one game mode.
Anyway really good game! But why do you have to play where when someone emptys all thier beads out of thier spaces then all of the beads in the opposite don't get deducted from thier score but get added! I don't like it as much. Is there any way you could include that in a future update? Also I get alot of online problems but it's probably just my wifi, right?
Great overall!
Thanks,
Gabriel

Love it   This game is great...love playin people on the net!! The only thing I can't stand is the LOSERS who are LOSING and just sit there waiting for the WINNER to quit...why even play the game if your a sore loser?? Other than that this game is addicting...I agree that it does need a timer for the people who just sit and waste time.

Great program, but.....   Is there anyway to include a time-out so that a player forfeits the game if they don't act in XX seconds? LOVE the game, but playing internet opponents gets old when they continue to stop play when losing.

Awesome game, few issues   Wonderful game, thanks! I noticed a few bugs/issues, now that I've had the game for over a month:1. After selecting "Play Again", it would be great if during the "Waiting for other player" screen, we knew what we're actually waiting for. Sometimes it takes 5 seconds to start the next game, sometimes its 15, and sometimes you're just left waiting because the other player hit the Home button.2. Trying to view the score list takes porportionally longer as the list of opponents is increased. It would be great if the list was somehow truncated, or only parts of the list were loaded at once (like say, 20 players each page). Configurable, of course.3. Staying on the score list, an alphabetically sorted opponents list would be great.4. Would be wonderful if we could somehow see our overall record against an opponent while in game. So maybe somehow next to, or under, their name we'd see a record (0-1, 2-3, etc)5. Agreeing with a previous suggestion, the ability to have optionally timed games would be excellent. Perhaps have a setting to "prefer" timed opponents, but if one doesn't exist then pick an opponent the normal way?6. Some additional auto-chat phrases would be great:- "I'm thinking"- "Sorry, I've got to go"- "Are you still there?"7. Sometimes the game can lag and think there are more pieces in a house than there really are. This happens VERY rarely, maybe three times in my 1200+ gamesThanks again for a great game!

Love it   totally addicted to Mancala. I love this game. wait until you become good at it. Suggestions: 1. since there is no way to eliminate all the sore losers and the babies that can't take a loss (do you think I care if you make me wait a couple of minutes, if you know that you already lost? GROW UP), I think you should time the moves, for example give a player 10-15 seconds to make a move, otherwise they lose.2. you should count quitting as a win to the opponent. it's only fair.

...   When I'm playing online and it's the other persons turn they send me messages saying "it's your turn" but to me it's not. But then they quit so I am guessing that to them it does look like it's my turn... That happens ALL the time! Very annoying!! FIX IT!!!!!

Great game, false advertisement   I had the free version and it is a fun game. The only reason I bought the full version is because it advertises "customized chat." I was really upset when I bought it and you can't type your own messages. The only difference is the colored marbles and no advertisements which I could care less about. Stick with the free version.

Great game, but Internet play poor   If only the Internet play on this game worker better... It's a lot of fun, but the supposed bug-fix doesn't seem to be in effect for me! I've had so many 'hang-ups' and hung games - it's very frustrating.

Good so far   Been playing the free version and liked it so I got the full. Worth the $2 but I'd love to be able to type my own messages instead of just the default ones. Especially when opponents get pushy with "its your turn." lol. Also customizations would be great. Different boards, themes, etc. Fix the messaging and customs and I'll gladly upgrade my review. Great game!
