My favorite board game!

Easier to learn than chess but harder to master! A game based entirely around human error, (which is why beating the algorithmic computers is nearly impossible) The fact that you have influence on your opponents move make it very intriguing to play, looking 3-5 moves ahead in 3-7 different ways!

hard

i have to think really hard everyturn. perfect bathroom game

Very good.

Pretty good implementation of a board game. Game takes some getting used to. Easy to learn. Some problems with multiplayer: notifications and sometimes needing to refresh to see recent move.

Excellent strategy game

Great work with this! Well made with strong AI. Two problems I've noticed. I've tried switching colors with the AI so that its black and I'm white so that I can go second. However, the AI just thinks and thinks without ever making a move. In the same situation, it would be helpful if the board rotated so that I could be behind my prices rather than play opposite.

Notifications don't work

This is a nice little game, but frustrating to play online because the app won't let you know if you need to take a turn. This would be a great asynchronous game if not for this fatal flaw. Unexpected and disappointing.
