Brilliant adaptation

Really enjoyable adaptation of this brilliant board game.

Zoo on the go!

Great app implementation of the board game. Top notch.

Great game!

Smooth and challenging game! Visuals are excellent!

Expansion???

I need expansions or new map packs of challenges soon please

Leider gänzlich ohne Ton und instabil

An sich ist das Spiel toll umgesetzt. Allerdings geht auf meinem iPad der Ton nicht und hin und wieder gibt es Abstürze

Performance à améliorer

Le jeu est bien opérationnel. Quelques rares crash et bugs visuels, mais très accessible par rapport à la richesse du jeu.
Par contre gros problème de performance pour un jeu de tour, le téléphone chauffe, la batterie se vide trop vite.
Peut être que pouvoir désactiver des animations ou optimiser avec le l’IA le code de l’IA serait à envisager…

Super Umsetzung

Tolles Spiel. Ich habe das Brettspiel nie gespielt und hab ein wenig gebraucht um reinzufinden und jetzt komme ich nicht mehr davon los. Richtig gutes Spiel und vor allem als Solo Spieler herausfordernd genug. Nur zu empfehlen.

Some bugs and glitches

It has few of those that can ruin your game if play comp.

Crashes all the time

For an app I paid for, I would expect it not to crash every game. Disappointed , but 3 stars for a great game!

Excellent adaptation despite weird glitches

This is perhaps the best adaptation of a board game I’ve ever played on iPad. It really is fantastic. It is so fantastic that I am giving it five stars even though it has weird little glitches that pop up in most games. Crucially, I have never ONCE lost progress because of this; if I restart the app, my game is exactly as it should be, and that saves my enthusiastic rating. But weird things like enclosures appearing in the wrong spot, action cards disappearing, not being able to hover over cards, or even game freezes are fairly frequent. These little blips were so weird that I even got a new iPad to see if they would still happen. They do, though less frequently. If Dire Wolf can fix these things — which, again, are annoying but don’t actually affect gameplay — then this will be a near-perfect board game adaptation.

Great game!

I love this game and this is a very excellent digital implementation. I only have it four stars because the game does get better with the Marine Worlds expansion. As soon as Dire Wolf releases that expansion I’ll bump it up to five stars. Can’t wait!

A great euro style game.

Love this game on my IPad. Great at house keeping and scoring.

Best game, best app!

Challenges are incredibly difficult and fun.

Gute Umsetzung

Ich habe kürzlich bei Freunden das Brettspiel gespielt und war begeistert. Jetzt bin ich sehr froh darüber es auf dem iPad auch alleine spielen zu können. Die Umsetzung ist gelungen.

The Mobile App is Worth it!

Amazing app. Phenomenal transition from table top to app. Ready for the sea life expansion to be added!

Bug with association action

When you have a flipped association card, the game does not let you do two actions for the value of X.

Einfach schön

Das Spiel läuft gut und flüssig. Es sieht sehr schön aus. Es macht einfach Spaß, genau wie das Brettspiel

Excelente adaptação

versão digital excelente! a interface está linda, funcional e rápida. Os sons ajudam na imersão ao tema

Review

AI goes too hard on challenges, consider doing a higher game ending cap.

Great Board Game, Buggy UI

Love the game but having to leave the game to comeback to make options appear is very poor for a paid product. Issues with “Resolve your effects. dialogue pop up, but not being presented with the effects. Had to leave the game twice to eventually get the options to reappear and undo moves constantly to get the UI to appear.
