Support
Ridiculous. Bought the game. Then they require an account to play online. Create an account. Won’t send a log in code. No customer support will respond. Ridiculous.
What’s the point
A person would think that in 2026 a game could be played with your friends or family online but no thanks to this pathetic excuse we cant play this one without it crashing or locking one of the players out. Just stops syncing I wish I could blame it on poor internet but I can’t. Sometimes you can get it back everyone closing the app not leaving the and reopening but it’s not likely.

Terrible for Cities and Knights
Awful gameplay. No randomness to how progress cards get distributed. Dice rolls so frequently on 7 and AI will always block/steal from you. Barbarian ship always lands on 7 when it hits land, and surprise, AI always places the robber on you to begin the new round. These developers suck.
Hasn’t worked in over six months
In the past, I probably would’ve given this app four stars because it typically works well, but matchmaking has been broken for a very long time and I regret spending money for this. I reached out for tech support, and they replied that my the app is fine and it’s an error on my end because my filters must be too strict.
I allow any number of players and any scenarios and still don’t match. So the one star is for the app, and for the tech support, too.

Bots too easy
Great game but bots get too easy and predictable after a time. A harder setting would be worthwhile.
Decent gameplay, but buggy
[Support has not bothered to respond - it had been 3 weeks. Downgrading to 1 star and asking for refund]
The graphic and game mechanics are awesome. This is the closest you can get to a real board game.
Now, the reason for ducking 3 stars:
1) paid upgrades often DO NOT WORK in FLIGHT MODE. I paid for a full game only to find out on a plane that it simply does not work without wifi (imho, absolutely sloppy and short-sighted feature design)
2) purchases do not get synced via iOS. I had to switch phones for a week (same apple ID), yet the second phone did not see purchases/upgrades that i had on the first one. I tried replicating on ipad (same apple id) - same thing. Once again, poor app architecture design.
3) Support is non-responsive. Emailed them with the issue. Around a week passed and the only thing I received was an auto-reply.
4) AI player are violently attacking you randomly. It tends to happen early in a game - got forbid you get 3 points first. I was repeatedly selective robbed 6-7 times in a row.
5) Dices don’t seem random. It’s almost like all throws are generated in advance- there are games when 6s or 5s just rarely happen (below random probability) for the entire game. Yet, if you start a new game, all of a sudden everything looks good. And yes, I play with the balanced mode off.

Horrible for your kids
Disgusting and vile app
AI is very very fake
When you play with friends it’s fun but when you want to play offline, it’s programmed to never let you win at all, so in the end it just becomes a waste of time
Robber central
It’s astounding how many times one player can roll a robber and win the game robbing from other players. My last game, one player quit and the remaining player rolled literally 14 7’s in a row and only put the robber on me. I rolled 3 7’s the entire game and the computer only rolled 2…
It ruins gameplay and makes me want to uninstall because this seems to happen regularly. Or 3’s and 4’s somehow defy the odds of rolling. Devs should probably adjust their probabilities in gameplay…

Crash
The game crashes so much and half the time you can even load a game without it kicking you out. How about you update that?
It crashes and freezes very often
Separately from the fact of how often it crashes and freezes it also doesn’t let you get out of it when it crashes.
Buggy
Will glitch and lock up mid game. Crashes whenever an ai player plays the merchant fleet card
Bugs and Glitches
At least 15% of Multiplayer games can’t be finished because of a bug where the game gets stuck on one player.
Rigged
Don’t bother. I can predict who will win every time. The game literally starts to favor a player and you can tell what’s going to be rolled with almost 100% certainty when certain conditions are met. Until they fix the algorithm or however it works I will not play again.
AI never lets you win
I’ve been playing Catan for a year now and never had this issue. Lately the AI targets me constantly — it always places the robber on me, even when another AI is winning. It rolls a lot of 7s when the robber isn't on me, but once the robber is on me, a 7 never comes up for ages. Both the AI and the dice feel rigged.

Dice rng absolute trash
Just had a game with five 2s rolled and not a single 9. This has happened multiple times
Just don’t download the game
This is the worst game I’ve played on my iPhone. Don’t even think about downloading it.
would be great but
completely broken, crashes and the tutorial will not work, keeps trying to get me to spend money
Multiplayer crashing
I’m playing cities and knights and it keeps bugging out, even after restarting app. Also losing my elo because of this. Dry annoying it’s unplayable, investing so much time in a game and the. This happens constantly
Ожидал лучшего
Игра замечательная, позволяет погрузиться в атмосферу колонизаторов на все 5 звезд, но увы, внутренние задержки, игроки, которые специально сидят АФК полностью портят игру… Интересно играть только с друзьями, в противном случае игрок просто будет слать смайлики и сидеть АФК. Поэтому ставлю 3.
