Great. But needs some tweaks.

Awesome app. Just a few suggestions. First, separate music and sound into two different options. Second, allow the orientation of the app to rotate with the device. Thank you.

Love the Game, but it steals my coins!!

I love this game, but I have one large complaint. Every time I start up a game, even if I am not able to get into one… it steals 100 coins and doesn’t return them. It’s not easy to get coins on this game so I find this very frustrating. When the game works and doesn’t steal my coins I have a blast playing it!

Great game, terrible scoring

I don’t get the scoring at all. I win by a lot: +4, +7. I win by the same amount and get there first: -26, -8. I win by a tiny amount, +31. I lose and come in second: +2-40. The rules say absolutely nothing about how to gain points. I’m starting to guess that whomever spends more on micro transactions gets the points?

Almost Perfect

This is a great game! I wish more apps would allow for private games with people you know. We play all the time. And it’s free and the ads don’t impact the actual game play. Though, sometimes the ads bog down the system. But for the past several weeks, the number of gameplay bugs have really impacted this app. It seems the developers are struggling to keep up with the huge success of this app. Please make comprehensive updates to get this back to the smooth software it was months ago. Thank you so much!

Response from developer

Hello, this is the Ephod development team. We sincerely apologize to everyone who experienced the issue of being kicked out to the login screen when launching the game on March 19th. The bug occurred due to an increase in users, causing a load on the game records in the database memory. The issue lasted for approximately 6 hours, and we took additional measures to prevent the same problem from occurring again after resolving it on the same day. We have provided 1000 coins to everyone who was unable to enjoy the game properly during this process. We deeply apologize to many of you who have felt inconvenience due to recent update failures and this incident. We acknowledge our shortcomings in this process, and we are truly saddened by the fact that Ephod is now perceived as an app with many issues. Taking this experience as a lesson, our development team will put more effort into creating an environment where users can focus solely on enjoying the game. We sincerely thank everyone who loves our game, and we also express our gratitude to those who provided feedback via email and reviews during the bug process.

Bug not fixed….now even worse!

Just updated my app to the latest version and now it’s even worse! It used to freeze all the time about a month ago, then they fixed that bug. Then it was having connection problems the past two weeks, so they apparently fixed that with this current update. Now it just doesn’t work! I have yet to finish a full game. It either won’t connect or it freezes. So disappointing considering I just paid to remove ads last week.

Splendor dupe but PLEASE FIX THE BUGS

Been having this problem since the 2nd to last update. In private games, with 2 players or 4 players, the game refuses to start; even with players in the game lobby waiting. With the new update with 2 players the same issue persists but when one player leaves the game (all other buttons are non responsive) the other players game starts with a bot. Let me reiterate, we LOVE this game, it connects me and my friends internationally and is our game night game weekly. Please fix this, our game nights just isn’t the same :( Other than that this game is AMAZING. Take the time to learn it and you will be addicted!

Update has broken it

Has been great in the past but the recent update means it doesn’t join games properly. Frustrating.

Good clone but lag issues

I love this “Splendor-like”, but it doesn’t seem to have support for when your connection gets a little slow. I don’t expect it to compensate or delays other people’s game if my data is slow, but it doesn’t even pop an error or warning. Just suddenly skips a turn or two. Also will randomly freeze from time to time, which I guess what can you expect from a free game.
