Overall quality was good. The bounties made sense but I had a hard time memorizing them. The only thing that really confused me gameplay-wise was the Roll/Stay, since it told me I re-rolled a bounty (I think I forgot that the one in the bottom left wasn't the only bounty), and because I wasn't sure if I was choosing the dice to lock in, or to re-roll for a minute. Made sense after I tried it a couple times.
Thanks for including the help menu in game, by the way!

I think the tutorial is a bit confusing, especialy before you get to play, I realized that the gameplay wasn't as complicated as the tutorial made me think, so maybe that needs some work, other than that great job on this game
Music ist great, graphics feel like it came from a monkey-island screen.
A really like it :)
I felt like the rules didn't flow too well together,
and I would have benefited from being able to see how the AI character chose their dice.
Loved the touch where the dice colors changed!
I had trouble reading the jokes, but it was nice that there was a touch of humor.
Thanks for making and sharing the game!
