Wonderful Implementation!
This app is a near-flawless implementation of the fantastic board game on which it is based. It is beautiful and elegant. I have played the app off and on for years, and I still find new things to learn. Santorini is a much deeper and more nuanced game than many given it credit for.
Minus 1/2 star because I have occasional crashes, which are frustrating.
Minus 1/2 star because there is no random player order. I hate resetting a match just to change start order. Please add a random first player option!

Amazing!
An excellent digital implementation for my favorite game. The amount of detail surprises me (especially for a board game app). I don’t play online, but it’s a great way to pick gods (and regulate matchups as it doesn’t select banned matchups) or pass the time against the AI when I’m not playing the actual game with friends. There is so much to explore and so many ways to play this really simple yet insanely deep game 10/10 give it a try!

Almost perfect
The app has a beautiful interface. The game is simply fantastic. however, the app crashes every once in a while, when I’m playing an opponent—one of my friends—online. If that could be fixed, and if they added a save mode, so you could play the same match throughout the day, rather than having to finish the game right away when you start (if you leave the app for longer than 20 seconds or so, it kicks you out and ends the match), this app would be perfect!

A little more balance would make this enjoyable
First match is you playing Minotaur against Artemis. Not impossible, but much harder than most random matchups of gods. If you prefer a fun game that gradually scales up in difficulty, stay away!
Love the game but it keeps crashing
I am obsessed with the board game. I burnt my husband out on it though so I had to download it on my phone and play against the AI to quench my addiction. Unfortunately the game keeps crashing, usually when the game is only a few moves from completion. It's incredibly frustrating. I've tried restarting my phone, closing all apps, etc. I don't know what to do to fix it but it's very frustrating.

Great graphics but
I’m not able to access the tutorials or rules. It shows an hourglass loading but it never actually loads. The helper button also doesn’t work.
Tutorial won’t load
Purchased this game today and the tutorial won’t load. Feel like I wasted my money.
Tutorial doesn’t work
The hourglass just keeps going round & round. I left iPad for 30 min & it was still doing that upon my return. What gives?
Beware some features aren't as expected
it's build with an option to play online against others but apparently most people play on BGA so you'll have a long wait for an opponent! Tutorials have to be found outside the app on youtube.If you like watching a rotating egg timer then you're in luck!!!
