Offline is a nightmare

Really not interested in the multiplayer aspect I just play against the computer to pass time. For whatever reason this game requires an always online connection and it will drop out half way through an offline game if you have bad signal. Not really suitable to be on Apple Arcade as a paid service.

Unclear

Every turn was 15 minutes but on my last turn it was seconds and then it said I lost despite have moves left. Why and can we change this. Again every turn was 15 minutes but for some reason my last turn was not 15 minutes during the same game. I was playing head to head. Boaters was on. I don’t know what boosters are but this is really frustrating. If there is an overall time limit for the entire length of the game then I would like the option to turn that off
