Kein Online Spiel
Sehr schade, dass es kein Multiplayer gibt. Diese Variante hängt der Physischen sehr nach.
Response from developer
Hello saeculum, it is a single user version for a quick and independent game you could even play offline. We made the score compareable between the differmet colours. Playing the "red" games is the same as plaing it "together", and the score is compareable througout the week. If you want real multiplayer, try our online portal at brettspielwelt.de
Very good but a couple bugs
After playing a few times I’m updating my review a bit. The original review is below, and I still stand by it and recommend this game, but there are a couple bugs:
(1) The horse doesn’t work properly. You’re supposed to be able to use his special move, plus your regular moves. This isn’t happening. Once you use his move, your turn ends without being able to use your remaining moves. This makes the horse more of a deficit than a benefit.
(2) Every single time I use a map, it gives me the same card I already have. Every time. It still gives me the extra 4th move, but drawing the same card you have every time makes the maps virtually pointless.
Other than that, which I hope those things get fixed, this is a good game.
Original review:
Thank you developer for doing such a great job making this game, and for monetizing it fairly with no ads or IAP. I appreciate the good data policy, and the small file size. It’s also good on battery. I really appreciate that it’s in portrait mode too! I tend to go to portrait games more because it’s easier to hold your phone that way. Much appreciated! I had never played the physical board game. But the rules and tutorial here are complete and teach you everything you need to know. It’s easy to learn, and it’s relaxing to play on a work break, and it’s strategic enough to hold your interest. It’s so hard to find good solo games. I’m so glad I found this one! There were a couple minor glitches during the tutorial game (I couldn’t click on one of the dialogue boxes, so I had yo restart the app, but then it was fine; and at the end of the game I had to double click the back button to exit). Other than that the game plays and scores like it’s supposed to. So I’m happy. I love the design, everything looks really nice, and it is intuitive. It’s just really enjoyable to play a game when you have 5-10 minutes. You did everything right here developer, thank you!

Fun, but has bugs
Great game, but has 2 obvious bugs. 1. When there is remaining movement spaces, if the user picks a Horse, all remaining movement is erased and never gets to be taken (Horse should immediately allow a single movement onto any terrain space and then allow remaining movement). 2. surrounding the Villages is not getting counted at all in scoring on yellow or red competitive modes. I have surrounded orthogonally and completely and 9 out of 10 times it gets counted as zero points. This is a point loss of 26 points for 3 Villages, so it is a huge bug to have. On brand new iphone with latest OS. Please fix.

Good implementation marred by broken login
The game itself is excellent— I expect nothing less from Phil Walker-Harding. Unfortunately most of the game is inaccessible because of a broken login system. I tried using my email address registered with other BSW games, and it always says “can’t find email”. Same goes for my player name.
All of their apps have a really confusing login system but this is the first that won’t take my email, and won’t let you try again without force-killing the app.

Great game, hard to find
This is a fantastic game, very clever and lots of replay-ability. Board gamers will enjoy this but it is really challenging to find when searching in the App Store. I presume the previously mentioned bugs have been fixed as I’ve played a number of games and they’ve all been great!
