I play the game on my windows tablet using blue stacks android emulator. 

Everything works fine except swiping for the dice.

I would like to see an option to just click the dice for rolling them!

Now its almost uplayable.

Maybe someone has a better idea?

Even on a regular Android tablet and on the iPad the dice don't always start rolling on the first swipe, they are a bit unresponsive. So a clicking dice option would be welcome.

In the settings menu try turning the Effects option to Off and see if that increases responsiveness.

Also, I've found just putting my finger on the dice and holding it there rolls.  (This is actually a problem, because I do this when I'm rethinking my strategy...)

"I need a lie-down" is the new "I'll be in my bunk..."

Hey, I'm André, the UI designer and art lead on this game. We've been discussing this issue for a while because it's come up a few times. I'm concerned about cluttering the UI with another button, so before we add a button, we're also looking into the causes of this issue (e.g. what's the performance on the device, how are users swiping, which direction, etc). Based on what is causing the problem most, we will attempt to fix that via the swiping code.

 

I would be interested to hear more details or see video of people swiping and it not working. What I learned from watching playtesters is that not everyone "swipes" the same way. Some people use two fingers. Some people swipe from the edge of the screen. Some people only swipe downward. The game covers most of these situations, but it's important to make sure the game doesn't make swiping too easy either (accidental rolls). The swipe is currently a short distance, and that might be good on some devices and bad on others.

 

If you have swiping issues, please tell me the tablet model you are using. If we have that tablet or a similar one, we might be able to fiddle with the way the game detects swiping and come up with a solution that works for [mostly] everyone.

I was running into this issue, so now I basically rub the screen where the dice are. On another semi related note, sometimes I will try to move a card from my hand to the banish area and I won't realize that I haven't grabbed the card until it is too late and end up rolling the dice.
