gender exclusive language

All of the cards say “his” when referring to players. Why can’t they just use neutral pronouns? Dissapointing.

Not a good app

Just works dumb

Ca va assez mal

Toujours buggé ce jeu

Thoroughly enjoy playing Catan Universe

This game is developing very pleasingly. It is as comparable to the physical game as you could hope to have on your phone. Seafarers and Cities & Knights expansions are perfectly detailed and very fun. The only thing I would like to see is a better menu interface. I.E. statistics would be better if you could see people’s games played:games won ratio. Also I would like to at least be able to chat in the guild and have Elo charts in it. A couple ideas that have come to mind but regardless this game comes with a 100% recommendation

Do not recommend

App freazes all the time waster of money

Wouldn’t Recommend

This is game could be fun but instead the owners decided to make it pay to play and if you don’t then you have to continuously play the same board over and over again which is so boring and makes it very predictable after a couple games. Meaning, you pretty much know who’s going to win based on the spots that they get to pick at the very beginning since you play the same exact board layout every game. Not fun at all!!

Some parts of the game

Very slow. Animations are not needed sometimes. Dice generator is very skewed often. Multiple instances where one number is rolled more than 7-8 times in a row. Need to work on that.

You’re game brings misery into my life

Hope ur happy with all the unhappiness you create

Deception

The online mode is constantly bugged and conection is lost, thus, me and other players are not being able to finish the game. Also, there are not tournaments or whatsoever to add spice to the game.

Tired of games glitching out

I’m tired of trying to play a game and game glitching out. I don’t know how many times this has happened. Can you please fix this issue?

Unfair Ai targeting

Played this game for a while before making this conclusion . I have high suspicion against their Ai code . When playing against the computers , all of them target you regardless of your points . Even if you are behind. In addition the dice repeatedly rolls the same number over and over and over with the advantage being clearly against you . I thought it was my imagination but it kept happening over and over again. My review is observational and Subjective. I am reporting it because it kept happening

The game doesn’t even end at 10 points.

Huge bug right now where it miscounts your points. You can hit 10 and the game keeps going. What’s the point of even playing this at this point?

Malisimo

Muy buena su interfaz pero muy malo el juego por qué se traba todo, todo el tiempo, puedes estar 30 min en una partida y de repente se traba y te saca 😩, desperdicio de tiempo, y lo peor es que pagas por el juego

The Rev

I love this game, but for the love of God fix the bugs

Way to ruin a classic game.. too predictable!!

Hubby and I love this board game and looks like that is the only version we will play. Not only does the Ai target whoever is the host but so does the dice roll and the algorithm heavily favors 6’s. If you don’t grab one you’re stuck for the entire game. We take turns hosting because it is the only way to split our wins. Whoever isn’t hosting not only avoids all the steals but all their resources get rolled. Devs, please fix all this. A game that is too predictable to where you can determine who wins and have the other lose poorly is an awful gameplay. I’ve lost by more than quintuple the points when I host to winning by at least triple the points of last place when my hubby hosts… WTF!

Pathetic

Pathetic that everything requires an account, gotta sell your data to play. Sad what things have come too.

Updates needed

The X button should not be the same as the “end turn”. Player may accidentally double press the x and end turn when they didn’t want to. This happens often if you are using a pen.

In addition, when the game ends, the all fog should be removed. Gives curious players an opportunity to view the entire map.

Glitchy! But still addictively fun

The game is fun, and I really like the different expansions. BUT, I usually have to delete and reinstall the app at least once a week. The game gets “stuck” on other people’s turns, not timing out when it should. The only way to not rejoin is to delete the app.

This is now the fourth time I’ve had to delete the app. Is there any plan to fix this known bug?

Freezes often and is predictable

As another user mentioned the second you have 8 or more cards a 7 is rolled. Although my biggest complaint is that the game freezes all the time and then you miss your turn and get kicked out of the game. Very frustrating to the point where I’m about to delete the app.

Crashes CONSTANTLY

Like legit every 1 in 3 times you play you’ll be mid game and it will randomly freeze and you’ll have to quit (and get elo decrease bc of that) just to start a new game
