If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Thanks - although the first is very user-unfriendly and rammed full of quite invasive advertising. The second is to play other people online, not a computer opponent.

    I'm just looking for a nice, simple, player v computer version, where the computer plays to a decent standard. Any ideas?

    is free and very good..............you might have difficulty believing some of the dice it rolls itself but the option to enter manual dice is available.

    An updated version (well worth the download) is now available.
