I love Catan, but this ain’t it

After playing this game multiple times I’ve noticed that the dice rolls aren’t really fair when you play against actual online players. The game has this like Karma mode, which makes it very fair for everyone to get to the top. You will spend hours playing this game not winning. It’s honestly a waste of time even when you have a good placement.

Joke of a game

Garbage game with terrible dice rolling

Rank System Broken

Great game for casuals but I just unlocked rank (silver 1) and tried to play a ranked game. I got matched with all players in platinum after 3 mins queue

buggy af keeps ruining the game

I love this game and play it all the time. however, pretty often the map will disappear entirely so I keep getting resource cards but can’t play them or place any developments. It’s a huge bummer when I’m on a roll or about to win and then have to resign and lose karma because I can’t see the game anymore. :( otherwise happy with it and love the 1v1

Best Catan I have found

The game has a great learning mode and excellent online play. I also like the two player mode.

The game just out of the box decides winner the very start of the game

Dice roll Not balanced

Trash Game

This game is such a pay to win, I can’t stand playing it but it’s the only online option.

2 Player Mode is awful

The balanced dice mechanic and wherever they do to the dev cards randomizer is terrible.

ADS

STOP THE ADS

WHAT A HORRIBLE APP

The dice rolls are rigged, or else I’d be world champion so yeah

Ads Ruined this Game

Didn’t used to have ads and they recently added it. Now it just loops ads and they expect you to pay. RIP

Love it

Best game ever

Good UI bad experience

Surprisingly it has many bugs, common guys you literally can vibe code this in a day. I regret becoming a member

App is completely unstable

If you’re gonna launch a new feature like Rush, ensure your service can handle the load. The lag on mobile will regularly skip 2-4 turns, making this format impossible to play.

This has been one of the buggiest game apps I’ve ever played in general. For the most part you just roll your eyes and grit through it, but the Rush instability will probably get me to stop playing the game altogether

Rigged

This game will make you lost even in multiplayer. It keeps you coming back.

Reporting users doen't help

Users have become toxic over the past few months. Matched with a griefer. Reported the user. Game made sure to match with them 5 more times. Back to back. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Worst set up ever

The original game great but the way admins set up this app is terrible. Pretty sure dice are not random at all, the game favors certain players (most likely the ones who pay for premium). They keep trying to fix things but they can’t fix something so obvious like players cheating and let bots place things for them then get good set ups and win the game so your score goes down but cheaters goes up. It should be changed as once bot placing things for you then you can’t get back in the game or if you win you shouldn’t be given higher score since you were cheating. Most people are rude and you keep reporting them but nothing gets done. You can’t block players. I think I should be able to block someone who disrespect me or cheated to avoid playing with them. When you do report, there aren’t a lot of options to report certain things. Admins don’t answer emails or respond to unhappy users, how to you want people to want pay if you’re ignorant? They set up certain people to win from get go so you have more than 7 cards and will roll 7 and lose half of them but they will have 20 and get good rolls. The set up winner will have low roll numbers and have this number more often than high rolls. People allowed to bully each other by keep robbing people who they don’t like rather than someone who has high points. It should be banned!!! Again, game is good but admins made it terrible and want us to pay! Heck no!!! Until you change things you won’t get my money. You can’t block players keep scamming the rest

Trashhhhhh

Just play the real Catan games the devs made one of the worst “random dice generator” you’ve ever seen and game crashes while online

Excellent game. Excellent app

Title says it all. App works great. Lots of fun ways to play. Colonist Rush is my favorite

Horrible RNG

The game will always roll a 7 after building or getting a dev card. Once the opponent is behind the game will roll a 7, then proceed to roll the number that gets blocked. Let alone roll the resource that the opponent needs regardless of how trash the number is. Not even balanced. Doesn’t matter how good your spots are.
