The newly updated interface gives this worst alerts and sounds that really makes game play experience horrible. Dice is "set" to be random but most of the time, it only favors one player and makes the other feel terrible. Check the dice stats and you know that is not Gaussian distribution.

Hey there Luke. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review; I'm sorry to hear you had such a negative experience on Colonist.io.
First, regarding sounds, I encourage you to lower the volume or even mute alerts and in-game sounds via the button in the top left corner of the in-game screen. As to the dice distribution, while I understand that it can often feel like the die is favoring one player or another, I can assure you that over a long enough period of time, the rolls will resemble a Gaussian distribution. If you would like to learn more about how our dice are programmed, Jeff wrote a great blog post on the topic: https://blog.colonist.io/designing-balanced-dice/
I hope these suggestions will improve your experience with Colonist. Have a great day!
