    GAMMONSOFT  There was a problem with v3.6.7 and Snow Leopard. Thanks for reporting it. 3.6.8 does work with Snow Leopard with Rosetta installed. I will get the universal version fixed to work with Snow Leopard in the next few days. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    SINCE84  I just bought this game in the dice version. It is simpler to learn how to play it in this electronic version. Works like the "real deal", scoring is easier and the game is just as much fun. On the plus side is you always have someone to play with with this electronic version. Good job!

    AZBLOU  If you have played Farkle you will like this game--it's a great version. Development is excellent, allowing you to adapt the game to your rules, and the author is available if you have questions about the game. Great directions. We love it and think the price is appropriate.

    KBISCHOF  Game is a blast, didn't take me long watching how the computer played to catch on really quickly. Purchase went super smooth and super fast. Look forward to future updates for this game.

    RIGELPRIME  That last guy is nuts. This game really deserves five stars. It is fun and addictive, and the computer plays a very good game. Of course, who wouldn't like the price to be a little lower? Prices are set according to what people are willing to pay. You can't fault him for that. Again, it's an excellent game, and so is Absolute Backgammon. After over 2 years of playing it, the computer still beats me more than I beat it.

    WOWEE  I've tried farkle on my pc and when it packed it in, searched for farkle for mac- This is what i got! Its not as polished as the other version, but still is farkle and still is addictive! you still promise yourself 'just one more game' and find yourself hours later still farkle-ing away! the edge over the competitors is that the dice arent picked out for you, so it doesnt feel like youre cheating! I Love farkle and so will you! (this version does need some work to get it up to standard as pc versions tho! despite this its still farkle and its still as addictive as any other version around)
