the game is amazing but have a serious bug

very well made game, but need a little fix. in 3 or 4 players on hard mode,the game stucks on “AI is thinking” and dont go foward.

Great game

This is one of my favorite board games, but it desperately needs an expansion. Any plans to expand this?

Soooooooo long online

Seriously, this game is supposed to be a quick card game by the mechanic used. The drafting system is made to offer all players to play simultaneously. But here every players are playing their turns in sequence. This plus the animation, gets us playing a simple game in around two hours... Two hours during which the game drains the battery’s. It’s just horrible. I can’t understand how a so cool game can become so long and boring when you don’t have any manipulation to do.

Great but has some bugs

This is a fun game but it has some very frustrating bugs when playing the campaign and solo games.

Crashes

The game is a good recreation of a fantastic board game. However, I have been unable to finish a custom game without in crashing since the first couple of updates. The game locks up on the AI turn and if I save and exit and load the game again I get a black screen. Avoid purchasing until the game is fixed.

Edit 24/10/19 - Just installed the new patch....app is still crashing. Game not fixed!
